KMS thaks Wesley Mission for financial assistance

Alan H makes the Presentation of a Bowl he has turned to Darlung while Jack, also of Wesley Mission, looks on from behind and KMS own Peter J also looks on with a big smile. This was after KMS handed over the Mobile Men's Shed.

Repairs to Mrs Roberts Skillet Handle

John R with the Skillet Handle that Jack N had the metal work to do, then Alan H took to the handle on his lathe for a buff up, then to Philip C for 2 coats of finish lacquer.

The expertise on hand in this Shed is truly amazing and in no time at all a job is finished and passed over with a handshake.

KMS Oldest Member on His Quad-bike

Frank N. KMS's oldest member normally has a lift to The Shed but today his lift had a Dental appointment so, Frank wheels out his scooter and off to the Shed. It's a round trip of about 10Km, not bad for a man in his ninety's.

Frank works on the toys The Shed makes for 'Aunties & Uncles on the Central Coast.

New work in progress storage shelf

It was found that The Shed needed an area where members could store their work for a short time to free-up bench space for other members to use. So Mick drew up a plan and the material was costed and approved at a Tool Box meeting. The material was paid for and delivered, then Mick erected this shelf and is now in use. From go to wow it took just 10 days. When something needs doing, Mick is the one to do it.

KMS's youngest member Turns a Ball-point Pen

Dieter T, KMS's youngest member turns up a ball-point pen on the small lathe. He has been guided in the use of the wood turning lathe by Alan H. Dieter is now very competent in the use of these lathes.

Clarrie S makes a Bar-bender for KMS

Clarrie S saw a need for a bar bender in The Metal Workers Annex so, to work he went and made one. It is used by the Indian Myna trap makers in the manufacture of their traps. Nice one Clarrie.

Mobile Mens Shed has trial run around Kincumber

Kevin D checks the lights before Peter connects up and takes The Mobile Men's Shed for its first run as a finished project. He and Alan S went for a tour around Kincumber and reported back that it all went well and turned a lot of heads as it went by.

All goes well for the handover tomorrow 28 May at KMS.
