Stalham Wet Shed

A little bird told me that the likes of BA and co are going to have a new companion - not sure for how long but she left her home in Horning today!

[BroadAmbition]

We always  welcome new friends, especially woodies

The trip boat at Ranworth has over wintered in the wet shed on a number of occasions.  

[unclemike]

if it's the one I think it is no stranger to the wetshed , was moored next to chameleon couple of years or so ago

[LizG]

Nope, will be a totally new companion! And wooden!

[Lulu]

I know, It’s AndyTBoater’s new project. He must have finished it already! 
 

[JanetAnne]

There is a Delight nestling opposite BA... ?

It's not going well at the minute. Yesterday he discovered he has bought the wrong pencils!!! 

[grendel]

I know. Its put me back 2 or 3 weeks at least. I do have a bucket load of sharpeners for when I find out which are the correct pencils

2B, 2h, 4h, HB, 2beornot2be?

Square, rectangular. round, octagon, six-sided-agon?

And as for colours and whether an eraser should or not be included. Its a minefield.

I`ll have you know I went on a pencil users training course.

And I did a 1 hour boat building course at IBTC. I am almost a pro.

just to let you know that one place I worked we nearly had a ban on sellotape dispensers after someone manager to cut themselves on the serrated edge, we mitigated the problem by printing a label saying beware sharp edge, so we were allowed to keep using them.

Not my fault. Some bigger boys started it and then ran away. The absolute horrors.

There is a lovely story that goes with the Delight but not sure it’s my place to tell. Polly will probably guess closer than most.

What about propelling pencils, often used in technical drawings so surely part of your plan and diagram preparation.

Then along with the graphite scale (H,B etc) you would also have to consider the lead diameter - 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 ... ?

Back on topic?

The new companion in the wetshed is a delightful little woodie.  No surprise there then as there are already quite a few delightful little woodies in t wetshed

What was a surprise is the way that the new owners came to own this delightful little woodie.  I heard the story today and tis a proper lovely tale.  I'd love to share it with you but need to get some permissions first, that's not easy as I have not met the new owners as of yet
