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

She spoils you.
I’m going to show my wife this post. Along with a Ferrari screw driver that I have - who knows what might happen?

She'll find you a Ferrari spanner to go with it?

The screwdriver might end up somewhere you weren't expecting?

IKt was yesterday. I acquired, WORKSPACE!!! I was fed up of not having any worksurfaces, so set to and cleared/put away. Threw away wood off cuts, random bits of metal

and other assorted crap that I had dumped on there. vacuumed the floor and I can walk around a bit now. It's a rare photo of the inside of the workshop. Good job I did it as I had a commission for a medieval box come in last night.

Nice bit of product placement there Dave!

By the way, are you up at the Royal Oak this year, first weekend of August?

 

[bourbon]

Sherwood? the group is, but it's a bit far from any help if I need it. TBH I've not done a re-enactment since my heart attack, and I'm a bit scared.
The bag was unintentional, but they make good rubbish bags.

A lump of flexzilla for the spraygun as it seems to get rave reviews

If we ignore they are using the cheap variant with fewer letters, I wonder what "aircraft aluminium" is?

I'm trying to do the same but I've got no time really

I don't recommend having what I had, just to get some time off!

I did think they were plastic at first

A pair of big SLA batteries, from a dead pallet stacker at work.



Only a couple of years' light use, apparently something broke in the hydraulics and manglement decided it wasn't worth fixing.

Plan is to pair them with an inverter-charger for use during power cuts, we get a lot of them round here.

Another thing unlikely to happen.
I've cumulated a lot of side jobs and I can't rid off, I have to do tick treatment in my land, cut grass, and assembly a sheet metal shed and another wooden one .
Fix my car too
I'm kinda depressed honestly because between my daily job and my father's cancer plus all those stuff I feel almost like at the bottom of a really deep well without a ladder to get out of it.
Anyways I'm doing something, I'm slowly refurbishing my neighbors Panther Kallista Wich is indeed a pleasant way to spend my free time.

And the other order.

That yellow warning label made me smile " Not to be used as a heat source "! Whats the point of having it , if you can't heat things with it

Yea but you needed those random bits in the future!

So RDG can't supply the correct spare blades to fit the holder they sell!
That's pretty poor service!

RDG sold me a dozen tapered parting blades 10 or so years ago and yes they have an apex top to fit the QCTP tool holder , when fitted in the QCTP holder the side adjacent to the holder is definitely vertical . I wonder if the QCTP is where the problem lies .. perhaps look at different QCTP's and see what blade fits .

Duralamin ??? Tough & as light as a British rail sandwich .

It means don’t use it to heat the enviroment, rather than the contents of your cooking pot

 

[RWD3M]

...Duralamin ??? ...

There's a blast from the past, 1977 to be precise (I'd just started my RAF apprenticeship), Hiduminium was another if memory serves.

Finally got rid of the Leased Transit and bought something for myself

It's very nice but a little more thirsty than my old 1.5 diesel!

 

[Blobber]

A bit more critter containment

 

[Pigeon_Droppings2]

Could be the worst £25 I've spent in a while. The "do not use" should really have been a clue.

These are expensive pumps...and more importantly spares are available so I decided to roll the dice.

A new MK modern metal enclosure consumer unit for my house



I replaced old fuse board some 15 odd years ago and wired these Wylex ones in myself-



These are still working fine but they are plastic units and the right hand one will clash with a new planned car lift install in this garage.

So ill remove both of the old ones and wire in the MK item myself on Saturday again.
