If you are concerned, a narrow shelf above would stop the dirt falling in and give another flat surface!

That's just metric fasteners, wood screws and some other odds and sods. I've got a mountain of imperial fasteners to sort out yet.........

Hang on are we confusing threads, I'm looking at your multitude of small drawers.
I need to see stuff, so I use those plastic wall mounted bin things, if I stick it out of sight it's lost.
unless it's clearly labelled, then I probably still may not find it.
Visual, me.

what's that?
It's a Myford ml7 - with an incredibly heavy cast iron stand and inverter. Had it 10 years at least and never used it, so time it went.

That's some serious drawerage!
Things that you see other skilled folk do, seldom are.

That's the drawback of any skill. Once you're good at it, it looks effortless to others

As you say getting the writing in the correct orientation after it's all folded is sometimes a challenge.

I made a big dent in my pile of shale by moving it somewhere else 
Dad brought his 4t dumper over to speed things up. Which after moving about 50t then blew a hose on the dump ram
. Then the day got even better because in order to extract said hose to have a new one made requires undoing two clamps that hold the hoses in place through the pivot. Except I think they fabricated the dumper around the clamps. Managed to get one off, luckily didn't round off the Allen head because I don't think I could get anything other than a 6mm Allen key into the hole.
To get access to the second one necessitates removing the drop box that takes the prop from the gearbox, has the handbrake and splits the drive to front and rear. What an absolute **** of a design!

Except it's not my bloody dumper
Although when I phoned Dad this evening he did say he had a new set of pads to fit to the handbrake but it looked like someone had welded the pin in previously. So on my way to get the hose, hopefully tomorrow, I'll drop the box off with him on the way so he can have a fiddle on a bench.
All I wanted to do was move some stuff
