Of course, I don't really know your price structure over there, but if you're considering Bosch_blue, maybe also look at the corresponding tool from Metabo.

I wish you a good hand!

I aquired a Hihoki (Haitachi) angle grinder recently - brand new and free. Well, sort of free. It only costs thousands of dolalrs per month in stock food purchases and ag supplies to get the points from the farm suppliers to get my free grinder - but that is the same really.

I caved in and finally treated myself. Been drooling over them for a while.
Not as beasty as the one @GSR has - tried it on a few wheel nuts but haven't found a proper challenge for it yet.
I could try it on a Honda crankshaft nut but I've already loosened it once with the pneumatic, so it would feel like cheating.

I wouldn't want to hold it overhead for any length of time though.

I was so impressed with the first one, when a second hand one came up for sale it seemed rude not to buy it

.

I found a small brass and a stand.

It looks good.
But it needs some work.

 

[RichardM]

Space - now to fill some holes, put an edge on top of three sides, plate the top shelf to make a cupboard, drill, cut and tap some new holes, bit of paint.

Then start putting the Tom Senior back together

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

Yay, found me a square one.

Spoty whats wrong with this one.

For £0:50p

£5:00.

I saw the Hall Marks and new it was silver. It is solid silver and dates from 1908.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

Norbert has left.
He also left some beer and this.

Looks like a smal anvil.

But it isn't.

So what was/is it?

The back end of one of these.

Now that's just greedy...
Still, I reckon the weight they are, if you use one in each hand you could save a fortune on gym membership!

Gratuitous background shot of the Team Green goody drawer also duly noted.

I was given points and brake adjuster tools for my old cars, very useful for me.

Do you have the space to set up and run the machine?
Do you want it to work?
