I nearly posted you the other day about this as I though this was your sort of thing, father was thinking about it but space wise left it. No money was it, well done just up the road from us

It's a lovely thing. I have until xmas to remove it. So I am hoping to dismantle a few bits so it's a bit more manageable

A bit of heat hopefully...

I would appreciate a hand when the time comes. I will bring plenty of tooling . Beer tokens . I will see what condition it's in. But I have the perfect home for it.

Give me a shout a couple days before your coming down I will make myself available, father recons going by the size it will be more nearer the 2 ton mark rather than 1 ton, I expect father would be up to help as well

Thunder pole T3000, so the office an farm lads have yet another means of getting in touch :doh:

I bought it, as it’s a very compact unit and DIN mounted without a special cradle. Boss gave me 75% towards it..

My bother is moving miles south and to save him transportation frees , and his back , I’m “storing” his air tools for free at mine :whistle:

8 miles was pushing the signal strength this morning, which is still 15-20 minutes from the yard. So at least the loading shovel is ready for when I get back.

Thank god “burners” are frowned upon

A “small” bearing press. Had to cut a foot off it to be able to stand it up in the garage. Filled with fluid and have pumped the ram both ways about 30 times but it still won’t build pressure, guess I’ll have to take the pump off

That’s a serious bit of kit

It’s a beaut, I have a feeling it’s come my way because it wouldn’t work, not that the fluid tipped out in the van. It’ll either need A new piston or the check valve need reseating

Drill jig.
Mainly for handle positioning but useful for other bits
Alloy and ss
Waited 5 weeks for it to arrive instead of buying one of the cheap plastic jobs.

Will turn some new bushings down for 5mm drill bits.

Also while in eurocell this morning they were selling windbags for 11 quid each so picked up a few .

Put off buying them at 20 odd quid a pop usually
