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

[MetalMonkey]

Finest chinesium bush removal kit.
Does appear to do what it says on the tin.

 

[zzr1200]

No real complaints. Fires up first time. It would appear the farmertec cyl coatings are not the best so buy with the intention of replacing the cyl at some.point with a decent one.

I am looking to buy the 880 or 3120 clone next. The G3120 has just been released so price quite a bit lower. Not decided which yet.

That's interesting ermmmm..

The last one looked like it had a quick pass of a sand blaster over it!

Indicating you drive it LIKE YOU STOLE IT!

Tiz the only way

It’s amazingly noticeable when you get a shiny new, non-pockmarked screen isn’t it?

Especially noticeable with my Caterham – the screen is nearly vertical, so pretty much everything coming towards it, hits it full on, rather than being even slightly deflected by the air stream over it as with a conventional (modern) car. The last one looked like it had a quick pass of a sand blaster over it!

Same in my Morgan, flat glass and almost vertical - just checked the replacement price, £1275.00

That price wants looking into ...


(No coat in this weather, Ta!)

 

[Mick Annick]

That’s main dealer price, though past experience suggests they’re the only source

Shirley, it is just a piece of laminated glass cut and ground to a particular shape.
So make template, give to glass people etc...

(Same as I did for OJ the car).

Don't call me Shirley!

Well, take the dress off then!

Or find a local Plant/Agri glass fitter, as they'll turn up, measure, cut, and fit.

It’s a heated screen, and it needs it - no demisters!

Maybe worth talking to Ricky Evans Motorsport ?

(Never knew Morgan had gone that posh...

this is much more Morgan electrically heated windscreen in IMO )

Same with the Caterham - made in Scotland from the sticker on it last time. Replacement annoyingly doesn't work on a couple of wires right in front of me. Rather less then your price though.

Owners forum was full of insured screens that broke . . . no auto-centre-pop markers were harmed in the "breaking" . . .

 

[Barking Mat]

Well, my exhaust had been noisy for a while, recently verging on deafening...

So I bit the bullet earlier in the week and ordered a complete exhaust, 160 or 170 euros delivered.

I was out, it got delivered this afternoon, as I drove in I managed to rip it off completely.

I didn't realise it was that dead.

I know what I'm doing Sunday....

Thanks, they look good. I don’t need one yet but it’s a matter of time…

 

[JOEPRO]

A garden watering timer. Made in Germany and surprisingly well priced at £40 posted

 

[nickk]

Usual variant of pressies,self funded of course ,the brushes are for a cheap FB buy of a makita plane,that only worked for 5 minutes,I’m hoping for a quick fix.

 

[Craig-SM]

The other 2 measuring tools I found really handy for the kitchen fitting was a digital level and digital angle measure...I could then keep everything bang on level and vertical which really helped when it came to fitting the doors and the drawers..

Since you mentioned the digital angle measure I’ve been itching at me and I gave in today when this Bosch Professional GAM 220 MF appeared localish. The MF part adds the ability to calculate mitre angle cuts both horizontal and vertical so you can cut angled pieces like coving whilst placed flat on the mitre saw.

I do a lot of decorating of rentals/refurbs, and my own house is overdue some attention so I bought a Mirka Leros wall/ceiling sander.

I bought a cheapo Screwfix version a while ago and it has been invaluable, albeit very heavy and gives me arms like Popeye . This is half the weight and also attaches to the Mirka M class vac so sanding is virtually dustless. I went for the extension pole to reach the Victorian high ceilings.

I have three of the smaller Mirka sanders and they are spot on. I am really impressed with the quality of this too, build quality is certainly not 'cheaped-out' in any way as so much is these days - makes a nice change!

 

[My Old Landy]

I find myself needing to desolder a fair few things at the moment. I struggle with the standard pump and wick these days. I have splashed out on one of these as we have one at work and they seem to work ok.
Hopefully it will be good!
