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

[Blobber]

Here's a current LISTING for one. We paid somewhat less than that, as it was on sale at the time.

Thanks, looks like im going to loose a few hours browsing that website with a mental shopping list

 

[Jelly_Sheffield]

The lid has some beautiful fine engraving on it and if anyone has any suggestions as to how to fill it in I am all ears:

Kwikfyl sticks.

Available from all good engraving suppliers

And it looks like I'm going to keep dragging mine out...

Ordered a PCP compressor, quickly realising that I would need a suited PSU etc I cancelled the purchase and was refunded pretty quickly.
Ordered a much nicer one with PSU etc included.

One on the left arrived, was going to have a froth at the seller, then the one on the right arrived (the right one)

I will be returning the one on the left to the original seller (a warehouse) or going to confession - given I'm secular, will be choosing the latter


Hail Mary full of gra...... x 10

Part of my tool acquisitions relating to my boat repair project...was second hand so hopefully it works.All I need it to do is monitor for vacuum change...yes I could have used the analogue gauge I already have ....but this is way cooler!

@The_Yellow_Ardvark where do you get all this cool stuff from ? it's astonishing what you seem to acquire ( I'm jealous obviously! )
The Meccano railway stuff is brilliant, though I confess I've got a fair bit tucked away myself though not all boxed in shiny condition etc.
myself and a mate who also has a good amount of track are going to have a get together at some point to run it all

The meccano and trains, from a shop in Wells.
The lanterns, WotNot, or the Vintage trading post.
The rest, set aside for me from charity shops.

... better start filling it

That won't take long!

 

[bricol]

A Norbar 330 torque wrench.

Well, I say "torque wrench". A fitter used it to undo a nut inside a machine . . . which required a length of tube to be slipped over the handle to give more leverage.

I spotted it in the scrap bin, a quick word later, and I now have an artistically curved to a 5 degree angle long handled ratchet for use with wheel nuts . . .

Words do somewhat fail me though . . .

 

[Jelly_Sheffield]

A smorgasbord of air tools.

Turns out there was more in the auction lot I bought last month than I realised from the photos...

- ⅜" Ingersoll Air Ratchet
- ½" Chicago Pneumatic Impact
- Ingersoll 308A Die Grinder
- Chicago Pneumatic Vertical Grinder
- Toyu 9" Angle Grinder (sans handle or guard)
- Generic Chinese Pencil Grinder new in box.

New lights for the tractor, came with a free plastic caliper/vernier thingy, does that make me an engineer now?
