Today I acquired...........

[daedalusminos]

I had a similar issue to @Robben77 who recently posted about acquiring new chuck jaws. My chuck had jaws but the repeatability was terrible and runout as bad as 0.5mm. Took it apart to ensure it was clean but came to the conclusion it had the wrong jaws fitted. It only ever had the inners so essentially would have meant buying two sets.

One order to RDG and a new chuck at £256 delivered was a no brainer.

Just been handed these, they were left for me at the boatyards office by someone, no idea who

No, just straight through.

Just standard VNMG16's

Never seen anything like them before.

Eight cheap crap bike lights for a tenner.


I love these things because they're almost disposable, it doesn't matter when they get lost, broken or drowned. I still have a decent light on the front so I can see where I'm going when it's proper dark but I can stick these on fork legs, hubs, my helmet, etc, and just forget about them. Plus I can keep a backup in my pocket when one inevitably dies.

25 tonnes of hard core.

And a bloody artic lorry stuck temporarily in the garden. Duhhh.View attachment 313189View attachment 313190

Wot on erf is that?

Not the truck but the yellow thingy. Looks like a Sambron type jack lift skid unit but with some form of hiab on the side instead.

What attachments go on the front?

Tomorrow @8ob , it was a long day, just got in from the pub, I’ll go looking tomorrow afo

@8ob , here is the link to the flowbench website. If you want the plans you have to pay for them - seems wrong, but imho they are worth it.

It's a crazy articulated digger.

Drove past this monkey winch today and noticed the for sale sign on it , someone had to buy it

That will take some time shifting with a wheel barrow, even longer with a two wheeled model

Borrowed a posh wheel barrow.

It's a bit bigger than I expected.

Bloody cider press has fallen over, didn't expect that.

Ho hum, 'til tomorrow.

My mate had both his nicked when his gear got turned over. They only left the poor sod one handle. I owned one of them before I sold it to him. He’s Been after One since. It looks like a proper trewellha one?

Got the original instructions and sales brochures if you wanted a pdf?

This is the reason I shouldn't carry cash. The bottle opener was free, the others cost a grand total of £5. Should clean up nicely in the vibrating bowls at work. Maybe polish them or dip them in the antique solutions, haven't decided yet
