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

Snap-on counselor MT1665 engine analyser.

 

[Bullet2012]

What do a train set and your wife’s chest have in common?
Both were made for kids, but dads can’t help playing with them.

 

[Turbo]

You're not going to pour transformer oil into that portable site transformer?

I may do some daft things but I'm not that daft!
The oil is for oil cooled welders.

I don't have Facebook sorry!

I don't have farceback either, but I managed to see it.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

Stuff, again.

Dusting powder, for puncture repair kits.

From a mad member on here.

Must be mad, he had a TIDY workshop, with clear spaces.




Plus a Lego Crocodile.

I will put it another way, I don't click on links that result in anything to do with Facebook

 

[My Old Landy]

Here you go

Cheers

 

[Puglet1]

I am so jealous. I’ve always wanted a mobile bread board!

Sensible.

A couple bits to give my desktop a bit of a speed boost

 

[Maker]

What's even better than a Tony's Chocolonely advent calendar?

Finally got the screwdriver I've been waiting for this morning.



I must say getting a new tool every morning makes getting up for work a lot more tolerable, I wonder if I can get another calender for the whole year.

 

[Mick Annick]

Thanks to the generosity of Mr @The_Yellow_Ardvark , these arrived with me today via Easyjet Birmingham - Geneva

 

[Memmeddu]

Well after having worked for weeks on my own leaf sight replica, happened to have found one on ebay for dirt cheap...
I feel little bit upset now

Not a KAC but another style replica but the same function, I don't personally like the side knob for fastening it on the rail system thought
But anyways it'll do the job maybe....
Cause my homemade one may look better once completed

Yesterday evening I acquired a Lidl electric die grinder, why ….. I don’t know as I’ve got an air one that I rarely use, it just seemed like a good idea at the time. Perhaps I ought to take it back, perhaps not, I expect I’ll find a use for it, at £16 it seemed too good to miss.

My boy has one the same this year.

Not today but during the last few weeks

3.3mm HSS Co bits to replace the one snapped two weeks ago

8-32mm deep and shallow impact sockets set.
Because I'd like not to destroy my Parkside sockets set (Wich are not impact rated despite they works great with an impact)

Talking about Parkside sockets set I've bought this one for my brother

It has a good selection of sockets and bits, he was talking about not having a proper set few months ago, he bought one of those small 3/8 set for temu but it's not complete
So having had a great experience with those sockets I've decided that he will found this set right below the Christmas tree.

Then I've bought myself a rifle carrying bag, because the one I already have it's not big enough to fit 2 rifles in it .
In addition this one has zip pouches and MOLLE straps to add others ones.
Three of them are included in the price.

I am tempted, but not tempted enough to go there before Saturday when things are hopefully a bit calmer. I have an electric die grinder that I use a lot, but I think the bearings might be on the way out, and I don't like the switch on it. And it's massive.

 

[marlinspike]

I only bought one cos it was crazy cheap. I have a Makita one which I must admit I hardly use because it's so big and unwieldy. The Lidl one looks more manageable.

I know they're made in China but I don't know how they make and ship them for so little. Economies of scale and high sales/small profit margin I suppose

Looks like I’ve started a sales rush, I wonder if I can get commission?

I got it, too. I wasn’t going to bother but… then I did

That T handle bit holder should come in handy.
