25.01.2022 WEDNESDAY 19 AUGUST 2020 My goodness, our volunteers have been very busy lately in the foundry - trying hard to keep up with special orders for our customers. Ike and the woodwork team are also working hard, repairing items for customers and making new product to sell as well. ... We are also making headway with building a new, bigger, CNC machine to enable us to not only make patterns for casting but also to engrave aluminium and brass plate for one-off items such as dog tags, ID tags, and the like.

25.01.2022 DAY TWO of the ANNUAL STEAM FAIR I was privileged enough to be able to join Craig Marshall in his 1930 Chevrolet in today's Grand Parade... another wonderful day meeting lovely people from all around the world. The crowds were thrilled with all the different vehicles we had on-site this weekend.

22.01.2022 SUNDAY 15 DECEMBER 2019 Today was our last "Open to the Public" day for 2019. Our volunteers have been working hard all year and deserve a break, so they'll be back on board and ready for the first day back in 2010 - Sunday 5 January from 7am (or thereabouts, they may want to sleep in still!!) MERRY CHRISTMAS and a SAFE AND HAPPY NEW YEAR to all our followers here in Facebook-land.

21.01.2022 FRIDAY 27 MARCH 2020 Please note that our workshop is currently CLOSED to members of the Public until further notice. At this time our members are still welcome to come down HOWEVER, if you are unwell in any way, please, for your own health and safety and those of our other members, STAY HOME and STAY SAFE.

21.01.2022 THURSDAY 2 JANUARY 2020 Happy New Year to all our Fb Followers! Just a reminder we open this Sunday, 5 January, at 7am for our first Markets of 2020.

21.01.2022 With respect for ANZAC day the normal Sunday Markets will not be operating. Instead we have a fabulous special weekend market held on Saturday with lots of stalls and fun for the kids to enjoy. Jumping castles, animal farm and pony rides. ... Devour a yummy breakfast of waffles and more or have your tastebuds sing with a satay sauce to make your mouth water. Shop antiques, great records for your collection, a good book to read, fabulous new fashions, decor for the man cave, a rustic bird feeder for your locals or satisfaction for that sweet tooth and much more! Join us this Saturday from 7am - 1pm at Old Petrie Town.

20.01.2022 SUNDAY 7 MARCH 2021 Our foundry team are in need of old engine and gearbox housings to melt down for our castings. If you, or anyone you may know of, have any that you’re willing to donate to us, please bring them down or contact us via our messages page for collection.

18.01.2022 THURSDAY 29 AUGUST 2019 Come on down to the North Pine Trades Guild on Sunday and see the changes that are happening in our workshop!! We are located to the left of the Fire Museum, just down the hill from Mumfords Barn where all the food stalls are.

17.01.2022 TUESDAY 20 AUGUST 2019 It seems our custom-made Dog Tags are becoming rather popular! Due to increased operating costs we have had to put our price of these beauties up to $10 each. Still a bargain at that price as we use 3mm aluminium plate for durability and longevity. These tags will last as long as your furbaby needs an ID tag for!!... PS, if you've already got an order in for a tag, you will not be charged the new price.

12.01.2022 SUNDAY 9 FEBRUARY 2020 A mixed bag today, the weather was not favourable for visitors at our workshop today, but we did manage to get a lot done! Took delivery of a 2nd hand air compressor (thanks to Bill of #PorterCreekElectrical and his mate Mick for picking it up from #RedcliffeSmashRepairs and also the team at the #QSVMS for the use of their crane). We also got some patterns cut out for a big order that our foundry is undertaking. And the model ship restoration is all but complete, now to make a display case for it to go in so it stays looking wonderful!

F...eel free to share amongst your friends and family to help us solve this mystery.... EDIT - the "jaws" are tapered. Overall length is approximately 150mm, and made from cast iron I think. At each end of the "handle" is a hole.
