I made mine, it took 3 days, I am 90% happy with it. I get paid £8 per hour at work, 24 hours, I could have earned £192 instead.

It is made from 3 hoops of 13mm square section RHS and plated with 20g MS.

Buy one from MK, it will fit, look good, the screen will attach OK, and save you all the grief. Rescued attachment DCP_0735sml.jpg

£8 a Month - hasn't Stoke got the minimum wage? Or are you a Cosavan refugee working off your debt?

I made chipboard templates based in the profile of the back of the nosecone (stretched in the x axis!) and muscle bent the RHS around it

A good wage around here would be £5 an hour.

When was the last time you looked in the papers or job centre?

Due to the working families tax credit there are more and more companies offering the minimum wage these days.
It's the single guy or childless family that suffers the most.

We had to have 4 kids so we could afford to pay the mortgage!
Think we might have a couple more and then we might be able to furnish it.
