A bit of lock-down welding...
So - I’m building a Tornado which has been something of an ongoing build but now starting to get close to an IVA test but I wanted something ‘simple’ to occupy my mind over the last few weeks as I have had a large work project under way and needed something for ‘down time’.

A stock of used horse shoes and a welder:

Whilst welding, our daughter’s partner took a photo of the silhouette pattern on the ceiling:

It’s 45kg in weight and 80cm across...

That's cool.

In our village we have the "purton remount memorial" and a blacksmith made a rememberance poppy out of horse shoes (the link is the remount detachment that dealt with ex war horses)
