Design, Upcycle, Make.
Friends! Welcome, and thanks for checking out my channel Flowering Elbow. My name is Stephen John Saville aka Bongo, join me on my mission to upcycle, make, and hack workshop tools, furniture and other things. Most of my videos are tutorials, where you can lean from my research and mistakes! I will guide you thorough novel and weird woodworking and metalworking techniques, and generally show you how to make cool stuff.
If you're keen to GEEK out about how to make or hack some workshop tool or gadget, be sure to subscribe, and maybe even say hello and let me know what you want me to make next.
Keep creating, Bongo.

Mega excited. Both to be going to Maker Central tomorrow www.makerscentral.co.uk/HOME (hope to see some of you there?) and to be on the cusp of a 'building the concrete CNC" video, that's been long in the making...

We have a Digger 😁😁 It's a 1986 (!) 3CX JCB sitemaster. It's got parts that need fixing, missing parts, rusty bits, a newly discovered hydraulic leak, and lots of mechanisms I don't understand yet... yep, it's just the ticket 😍😋
Any tips for this new adventure?

Hi Friends. So after removing one six inch nail, I myself, hammered into this tree decades earlier to make it clime-uppable, two chains later, it turns out I needed more 'holds' than I remembered! I guess the mill chain sharpening video I keep threatening to make is next up... Anything people would like me to particularly address, any problems you have had specifically in regards to CS milling chains? Any specific questions?
