Boiler room
One of the WWF's members (Bodrighy) from the UK was posting some pics of a recent family GtG on FB behind them I spotted an Boiler door etc. I had thought Pete and co were at some special events place and asked where. To my surprise and with Pete's permission he's allowed me to share this its in his home which he rents.
Best photo I have got from a couple of years ago. It came from a factory in Melksham, was cut into 4 pieces and rewelded together in situ. Supported on two boig RSJs that go down into the garage below. The wall around is MDF treated and textured to look like brick. Real brick would just break up as the door closed over time as it weighs a couple of tons.

Very nice re-purposing of materials
I have a mate who is talking about doing that using one of the boiler fronts from the sawmill at Powelltown in North East Victoria.
I want to as well but having had firm no's from the missus before, this suggestion got a very firm "no"
Looks fantastic, Thanks for posting Ray
