Working on a delightful Barrett Albion soon to be delivered and installed in Wales.

Working on two iron hand presses: an attractive little Wood & Co. Albion from 1867 and a magnificent Columbian from thirty years earlier.

Patrick made a pattern and took it to one of our favourite foundries to have three gripper fingers cast in brass. Guy finished them on the milling machine and Patrick polished them ready to be fitted by Giles and Theo.

Patrick and Guy took a trip to local steel stockholders and came back with some big heavy steel offcuts to make a bracket for an Albion bed. It will be drilled in position and fitted by Giles and Theo.
