Painting windlasses


I bought a tin of "Hammerite equivalent" today and made a start on painting some windlasses. For comparison there's a "before" windlass behind the three I've painted.

It's much quicker slapping on a coat of "Hammer Finish" than trying to decorate with canal art-looking embellishments.


Incidentally, this is one of the first photos I published on my blog, in 2007. I took it with the built-in camera on the iMac. I've only just noticed that the top of my head almost exactly follows the angle of the windlass!
