I reasoned that a tool van might have something a bit more secure so I decided to make a couple of padlocks. This proved easier to say than to do &#8211; I had just nicely filed them to shape when one flew off into space so I put the other on one side in disgust. A couple of days later after turning the workbench and floor upside down I noticed the missing lock caught in the hem of my apron&#8230;.. I then had a couple of unsuccessful attempts at soldering a loop on<br \/>\nthe top.<\/p>\n<p>But when I had finished adding the last bit&#8217;s and pieces last night I decided to have one last attempt before abandoning the idea and to my surprise and delight each one soldered without problem.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.railway-models-and-art.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/IMG_7076.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1430\" src=\"http:\/\/www.railway-models-and-art.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/IMG_7076.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_7076\" width=\"607\" height=\"442\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.railway-models-and-art.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/IMG_7076.jpg 607w, http:\/\/www.railway-models-and-art.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/IMG_7076-300x218.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.railway-models-and-art.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/IMG_7076-411x300.jpg 411w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 607px) 100vw, 607px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A session last night saw the tool van finished.
