Val to the rescue

Post by Roboframer »

The workshop was like Piccadily Circus today - I went to get coffee for everyone but could only manage 2 cups at a time - we do have a tray but I'm about as guaranteed to have an accident as Stan Laurel would be.

So, I made this from a black 5mm foam board offcut and impressed the frell out of everyone :D

Arqadia do the black foam board - product No.: 999000631 - 30x40 - packs of 10. Not sure if anyone else does it - Crescent maybe?

I am the chief coffee-maker here - it's too important a job to trust to a minion :!:

Bet they would have been even more impressed if the cups had some coffee in!

Nice piece of inventiveness there John! Perhaps Valiani might purchase the right to that as a template for inclusion in the software for all Valiani owners? :wink: :wink:

Don't you think "Val" is a terribly soft, pink, sissy, lacy, frilly, demure, prissy, girly, pansified name for a supposedly macho piece of equipment? :wink:

We get black core, black foam board from Wessex. Only got it in 5mm I think and it's twice the price of white.
