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

[Woody.v8]

that's incredible workmanship

It really is, I'm hard to please and I am happy with it.
Expensive but I can see why.

A nice oil pan (sump) for my racecar, very impressive build quality.

I can see lots of ballast/cement in the future so new wheels for the wheel barrows in anticipation, 4 ply so "should" be heavy duty

A faulty magnetic chip collector aparantly as the chips are not attracted to it at all!!

 

[JOEPRO]

Do they only work with frozen chips is that what's wrong?

I know - they wre triple cooked chips so that's definitely throwing it off.

"New" lave :-)



Its a Colchester Master and came with most of it's bits. It was at the right money too so had to be done, a couple days with it next week should see it up and running. I think I'll start by giving it a good clean.

That's what I normally say with a new old car purchase. Then it ends up on axle stands for a 12 year nut and bolt restoration

That's why some of us have learned to sod that, & just do a quick clean up/down now.

I have various Makita clones and I'm tired of the infinite charging time and low performance batteries so time to get something genuine.
I've bought two faulty DC18RC chargers for about 4 euro each

Apparently they are easy to repair so I hope to be able to save at least one of them
Bought two chargers so I can use the other one as reference while checking and repairing the PCB

My spring hose clamp pliers set arrived yesterday, looks OK though a little disappointing that some of them don't quite fit properly in the blown plastic case. There's a spare screw nipple floating around that I haven't seen an origin for. Will have to remember where I put these, ready for next time I need to do something with coolant hoses on the daily driver Audi.

A neighbour who is a fisherman just handed these in:
3.5Kg bag of prawns:

And these live monsters the size of lobsters:

Present for my birthday will be tomorrow's starter, then a leg of lamb:

The card 2nd on right may need context:

I am a big AC/DC fan, I got tickets to see them at Murrayfield from my wife, my work colleagues despite being told I wanted nothing gave me the landrover card plus a £125 donation to the Beatson cancer charity and a £150 ticketmaster voucher.

Took the afternoon off work, out for a meal and a quiz tonight plus bus pass applied for

 

[RichardM]

Saw them at Reading in 76, wasn't that impressed.
10 months until I get my bus pass.

Happy Birthday for tomorrow.

 

[Blobber]

40 ton of planings supposedly

 

[OJCar]

Present for my birthday will be tomorrow's starter, then a leg of lamb:

Have a Happy Birthday and don't let Kirsty eat all the lamb!

Welcome to the Saltire Card Club!
