Today I acquired...

A four post lift.

Whoop, whoop !

And a box of bits from some kind soul on here, but not had a chance to take photos yet.

A picture tells a thousand words, hopefully

Now all safely tucked up in the garage.

Superb, that was a fantastic bargain. I love my Centec 2b and I don't have the vertical head you got with yours!

 

[Slowcoach]

Isn’t it a 2a as the knee adjustment is at the back?

 

[RichardM]

Part two yes 2A

His is a 2a indeed. A brilliant bargain with all that tooling and the vertical head!

Is this thé one on Gumtree thé other day?

You've hit gold there.

Certainly seems plenty there.

 

[Pete.]

Gold indeed.

I have a similar rotary table paid £120 for it. That Dickson tool post and holders is worth well over a ton if it's not a soft Chinese one. Collet chucks, face mill, vee block, digital height gauge and all the other bits would almost make it worthwhile without the milling machine.

That's a nice haul.

 

[Seadog]

Saved me a 6 hour round trip

 

[RichardM]

Twas only a 4 hour round trip, but worth it. The QCTP I think is a Bison tool post, all the other copies seem to have either round or rounded off edges to the piston, 4 no name holders, 4 of the holders are Bison 4494/6-48 (T00). The Jacobs rubberflex I couldn't find the nose for the chuck, so will have to make one. Most of the cutters are new as well.

Oh and the mill appears to be in VGC for it's age

Thanks for putting me onto it Pete.

Today I acquired another phone. Always liked my Blackview BV6000 but decided to go for a Ulefone Armor a while back but just couldn't get on with the camera. I never thought it took that great a picture and the colouration was poor.
So today I got another Blackview but this time a BV5900 the same as the other half has. She likes it so we will see.
I had to get one with a different colour so we could tell them apart but they didn't have the green so had to go with orange, apart from that it seems good so far, we will see if the pics look better than the Ulefone in the next day or two.

I don't rate blackview, we had one, it was rubbish, rate Ulefor though.

I am the opposite, had the BV6000 for years, still have it in fact and have been using it the last few days while waiting on the new one arriving. Maybe I got a bad Ulefone and you got a bad Blackview

 

[RichardM]

had to go with orange

Looks much too nice to use at work
