Bought buckets and a quick hitch for my 5.5t digger from a company through Alabama. Freight cost damn near doubled the cost but still 2/3 of the local prices. Quality was excellent.
Buy a lot from Aliexpress and generally no issues.
They have gone up in price since I put a 3 axis on my RF30 drill mill and 2 axis on my lathes. Money well spent. You won't regret it. As others have said, the travel distance is around 140mm or so less than the overall distance so check your space to fit.
I used a dial guage to make sure the...
I have those in the bed of our 1.5t Daihatsu Delta farm truck, with a plate under the deck to make sure the bolts won't pull through. For proper tying down, there are rails on the underside of the deck, but they are hand for light loads like stopping the farm gate moving yesterday on the way...
Run you fool. This purchase leads to eye rolling from the wife, when you ask "have we got anything on this weekend" and trips away are romantic getaways to industrial estates to collect heavy pieces of Victorian engineering.
BTW, you needs a plasma cutter and a tig welder, preferably one that...

Good tools are expensive here. Bring what you can. There is no requirement for 110v commercial or building site tools, everything is 230v.

My Christmas project was making a couple of lightweight pallet forks for the tractor. A set for me and a set for a friend. I made a proper set that will do 2t with proper forklift tines a couple of years ago, but they are at the cowshed and often in use when I need them. I wanted a small set for...

My wife is a crazy chicken lady...
I think at one stage we had 30. I lost count. They are very free range, in fact damn near feral and range over the paddocks surrounding the house. In one case, they went to the neighbour’s place across the road, 250m away and pecked on their door… They ignore...
I took up archery this year along wiht the youngest boy. This Christmas project is to make a towable target frame and backstop to sit in the paddock so we can shoot at home. The club has an outdoor range 10 mins away, and indoor every Thursday (for 10 months of the year), but being able to walk...

You need to get or make some gunpowder (black powder) and test the claims of the rum that it meets "gunpowder proof".
As I recall, a small amount of black powder in a metal container. Cover with rum and light. If it is ovenproof, the powder s

I have a 132k6 Singer my grandfather bought new either just before or just after the war.
In our last house, circa 1999, I was in the ventilation business and made a few cook top hoods for high end houses.. We had a custom made stainless steel hood based on commercial requirements and with a 400mm roof mounted vertical discharge centrifugal fan. Nice and quiet, but would suck up...
