New toy

jammy, good find and buy...
ild find much use for one, but no space for a floor mounted one.



i thought about that, but our ones have loads of drainage holes drilled in them.



you sure aint

they should be small enough to stop the grinder falling out

i would never sharpen anything on the side of a grinding wheel the same as i wouldnt use out of date regulators and grinding disks i would have the forum health and safety police after me

what's that your advertising in the lit up box, the x factor

Apparently not....

Why has the muppet put 'and' in the middle of that? Makes no sense whatsoever.

It's oil, engine, and preservation society. They like oil, engines, jam and chutney...

I assume it's because they own and preserve oil engines, and are based in Wychavon?.

 

[MattF]

Aye, I understand it being a preservation society, but I can bet you a pound to a penny that if you Google it, it will be "Wychavon Oil Engine Preservation Society", with no 'and' in the middle. The 'and' just turns that into gibberish.

[brightspark]

yup theres a few we cant all be perfect

 

[ronan]

Yeah, but some take it too far.

I'm with pdg here. I'm 'old skool' and we had to pay attention when we were there......

But, time and tide wait for no man and the world has moved on since I were a yoof, innit? [just gettin down with ma peeps their..... ]

 

[MattF]

What makes me die a little inside though is my 'E' grade I got for my english gcse, because spelling and grammar don't matter just so long as you can write a 'story'

Ironic, isn't it. I failed at English too.

 

[MattF]

Yeah, but some take it too far.

You've got to admit though. With a display piece they take to shows, you'd think they'd put just a tad of effort in. It's not like I pulled him over the fact he's obviously wired those bulbs on a tail rather than a ring circuit too....

Here's one of the tables after being electrolysised (electrolysed?);

I think I'm gonna have to put it back in the tank, with a thin anode (Piece of rebar) through the middle, I can't think of any other way to clean the middle of them.

 

[ronan]

Is there old paint or enamel inside the castings ? Might be an idea if there is to paint strip it first.

Yes, there is paint, I thought electrolysis removed paint though? How else would I strip it?

No...its like putting a earth clamp off your welder onto paint...needs paint stripper...acid...or fire
