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

[Tigman]

Not a bad haul , if I do say so myself , bit of water damage but nothing major

 

[Fred Trevvett]

a D1 swiss tech made in china guess what it doesn't come with a case and needs an app for full function
Maybe destined for the glove box ,thought it was cheap !

I might take that off your hands if you really don't want it, I've been after a cheapish one for a while... No worries if not though

Today I acquired some professional graffiti.
I'm having a knee op today and the surgeon drew this on my leg!

I'm sure he's having a laugh at my expense

I had similar, pointing to the grapefruit sized hernia that a blind man on a galloping horse wouldn't have missed

Nice bloke and we always have a chat about the state of country.

Then he will probably have had a thing or two to say today ...


All in all, a decent haul

I have bought it to use but me and tech don't mix well ! As said I thought it was cheap , got it from the trade counter at me local Magnet .
said there around £70 ish but as they'ed never sold one and I'd just bought (well put on me account ) a grands worth of oak doors he'd do it for cost at £48 , is that cheap and I wouldn't thing Magnet would be selling knock offs. I now some of the Bosch ones are silly money.

 

[Fred Trevvett]

£48 is cheap to be fair. Let me know if you don't get on with it and I'll buy it off you for that

No worries if you end up keeping it though

 

[roblane65]

Will do Fred .

Did you buy that new Bob? I need one to put above my milling machine to lift the attachments on and off.

Yes Pete its this one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/363856074057?var=633081118961
I have it stuck to a swing lift, made it for the parts cleaner but I am adding a fixture to the side of the mill so the it can be used on both.

@dobbslc , it's frightening the number of wrong legs (for example) that have been amputated by simple error.

Everyone gets tired and makes mistakes.

 

[Tigman]

Don't want to rub it in but these aswell

Nice of you not to rub it in, a real pal.


Well done,

I'm sure he's not, Brother in laws Brother had the wrong ball removed then had to have the other one removed.
Compensation was quite high.

 

[Maker]

A peristaltic pump.


Needs a 24V AC supply, so I haven't tested it yet. It looks like there's a hall effect sensor for feedback too which I might try to read. Not sure what I want it for, it's about a 1mm tubing so very little flow rate at presumably quite a high pressure. Its just more treasure for the pile now.

I'm sure he could hit higher notes, though.

So its this, the part I showed the picture of is sandwiched between those 2 big washers on the left of the shaft, as the hay is stuffed into the chamber it turns that big angry spiky wheel that turns the shaft and the roller im replacing, the arm above it is tight against the roller so as it turns it lifts the arm up, when it reaches a set point your bale is done, the problem is the friction between the roller and arm or lack of friction so hope fully this should sort us! every year I keep looking at it thinking of betters ways to do it but you need a field of hay to test the ideas!

It could be worse, that's a simple mechanism, if the knotters go wrong you're in a real level of pain.

And fewer people around that have any experience of them.
