Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
Well Done Joe. The first box is nice and chunky which I like. The washer cylinder is the one that's troubling me.

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
Well I honestly don't know how I did it but I have got the washer out of the cylinder. I don't fully understand it but it sure is nice.
I've edited this as I figured out how I did and there's no putting it back together.. don't ask I'm a little too embarrassed about it
but I will be ordering another one.
It would be nice to have a natter to someone about it though if anyone would like to PM me it would be great.
