Re: Anybody building anything special over winter
I did think about building a Hadron Collider over this winter but the wife said no.

Go for the small one, despite building an extension for my books, I could not get the Large HC in my house either !

Re: Anybody building anything special over winter
What I wouldn't give for a nice cyclotron to play with...
I'll be continuing my sloooow work on the 1275 for Mog, with a target installation date of next spring (or whenever it gets warm enough to do that much work outside). I'm also playing with modifications for my custom brake light switch setup, and rebuilding the rear suspension (though it's getting to be too cold for that now).
I also have a couple of non-Minor projects - I'm looking to build a standing lamp for my mother for Christmas, or maybe an antique button collage instead (or both!), and I need to repair the supports in a sentimentally-valuable comfy chair (it was my grandmother's).

The way to a man's heart may be making food, but the way to my heart is buying me car parts!

Nothing car-related over winter here. Firmly indoors with project clocks to revive ready for sale at art deco fairs next year.

Re: Anybody building anything special over winter
Bought a MIG welder recently ( early Christmas present), started off with making some intergrips for holding panels together when welding, currently making a trolley for the welder and gas bottle, before moving onto a rotisserie to put Vanessa on ( the name my wife gave the car, not a female family member ).
