    Can you tell what it is yet?

    I have a load of off cuts of 6mm MDF left over from lining my daughters' shed, some have come in handy for levelling the piano on the uneven garage, I mean mancave, floor - but what to do with the rest?

    Let's see if you can guess, I have a box of dome head pins, assorted tools and a letter stencilling set.

    Stage one was to cut the board to size then add the pins.

    Any ideas yet?

            Looks like the start of a rig board for fishing,,,,,damn wrong hobby.
            How about something to hang your brushes on using the stencil no's to show which size brush.

              It's some sort of knitting rig so you can knit colourful covers for your mancave piano!

                  It's not a tool or any kind of aid to building anything. Joe is along the right lines but but not the centreline (see what I did there Joe?).

                    Another clue. I'm sure will all be underwhelmed when all becomes clear.

                        Is it an aircraft panel with a rivet line? That brown paint has potentially baffled me even more. But another part of me says Rick would just get a real panel and paint it to suit...

                          Centre line reflectors on an A-road or possible motorway? (this Swede knows a thing or two about the British road network )

                            Well done Joe, you win a packet of chocolate fish - which is immediately forfeited on account of the All Blacks beating Scotland last night.
                            My underwhelming idea for an aircraft display base is a replica section of aircraft skin with a row of rivets for relief and a splash of camouflage paint, one part will be green the other brown. The stencil set is to add a bit more interest with a "NO STEP" marking.
                            A long time ago I could have knocked up something with aluminium sheet Joe but I no longer have access to a sheet metal shop unfortunately.

                              Not that much mate 'cos Joe has figured it out. I think it is a driving on the left hand side of the road thing - Sweden should never have changed over to the dark side!
