Fred Dibnah talks about the boiler room for the steam engine

A nice composition

Totally by accident, but it just happens to look nice all together. Please, don’t be a dick and use this pic without letting me know. I don’t care for money, but I would like to know what it is used for. Thanks. (it’s kinda blurry anyway)

Fixing a ferrite antenna control knob (BD563A)

The control knob of this Philips BD563A broke because the previous owner didn’t notice or care that the knob was turning heavily and so after a while it broke out.

Since it is basically impossible to get the right colour AND type of knob, one has to come up with something. Printing a new button is not an option, since I do not own a printer and part of the knob is in plain view.

So I fabricated a sliding axle and have affixed part one of the control mechanism onto it. No glue, just a precise cut and some thinking it over many times.
