La Wood TV metal stands

 

 The metal workshop at our Queen St, Onehunga, premises. This is where I not only made the metal stands (there is one in the foreground that I have just completed brazing together ready to be cleaned and painted), but I also prepared by punching the valve base holes and drilling the blank aluminium chassis ready for wiring and assembly on the bench. Note the gas bottle set which I inherited along with the other tools from my wife's father's plumbing workshop in Mt Roskill (he passed away a few months after my arrival in New Zealand).
