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

[8ob]

Looks like something I would have loaded

That bit of 24" pipe today is the same price as the 48" gear I bought ten years ago, plastic prices are insane .

Not sure when I'll get around to doing anything with it though, as workshop space is at a premium, and I've got a couple other projects I want to get progressed first.

Dental CNC?

A slight heating upgrade for my garage







Good used heater fully working. All genuine original accessories including flue kit, thermostat, over 7m of tubing and a splitter. 230v heater 30kw clean fumes free heat to garage space.

Ordered a relatively cheap set of thread wires from Germany.
Probably Chinese. Two of the 1.6002mm wires measure 1.575xmm. All the other sets measure ok as far as I can tell with my 0.01 micrometer.

Great cab, you can fit a whole wheel in there I bet.

Do you have a decent size air compressor to run it? Tandem ideally IMO.which is what I run

Hi, Yes it will take a wheel, the main reason I went so big.
I have a 35cfm 2stage petrol comp, our power supply in the sticks is dismal.

Dental CNC?

Sure is.
It's quite an interesting machine, but the controller is obsolete.
Apparently it used some kind of online system, but I've not had any time to dig into it, and see what is actually fitted.

I wasn't going to buy any more Carvers.... however was a steal.

Box of 10 600x600 flat panel LEDs for the workshop, seemed cheap enough @ £112, should be a nicer light than the floods im using at present

Today I acquired a special loaf of bread, given to me by a Ukrainian refugee. Little old man who has been watching us make fools of ourselves recovering the tractor from a bog, he went into town and came back with this as a present. I reckon he is from the farming community, quite touching.

I've got those in my workshop they are very good. Did they come with drivers or do you have to buy those separately?

 

[Blobber]

Linky please.
