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

[Maker]

I use mine all the time, I'd quite like a second one to power off the first one though.

I'm pretty sure I've got a roll of Stubbs files but I can't for the life of me find them.

Use my technique and look for something else, you'll soon find them

And now you know about them. will you be looking for a Safebloc as one of those things that will come in handy one day?

You know what, I do actually need a safebloc, the number of times I've just bodged things up......

Don't tell anyone what I do for a living

Yup. Just had a look. Need one of those on my shelf. Will have to acquire one.

Should I start a new thread "today I unearthed"?, as recently I seem to have been looking for one thing and finding something I'd forgotten about

Today I was looking for my Safebloc to test a motor and found this Swiss file set made by stubs, never been used either.

I did find the Safebloc later

Christ, is that how much those blocs cost nowadays? If you ever fancy flogging that file set, give me a shout.

hi mate I have a spare safeblock if you want it, it's a bit used but in good working order! I got a load at auction in a box of other electrical bits and found one in the workshop the other day!

[Tinbasherdan]

Facebook find. No 78 doesn't even need the blade honing.
Will be living in the van as a working tool.

Yesterday at the local steam gathering I picked these up

Three carbide burrs for £10 and the clamps for £8.

 

[eLuSiVeMiTe]

Picked up these lawn airators for free this morning. I've got 3

children under 6 so obviously I have no pride in my lawn. Can anyone guess what I'm going to use them for?

 

[Dodge20]

Scaling the North face of the Eiger?

 

[eLuSiVeMiTe]

Nope. Scared of heights.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

No one has died of height.
No need to be scared.

Everyone I know who fell from a height and died, died because of the first 6 inches ground.

You should be scared of the ground.

Nailing the kids feet to the floor to keep them in one place

 

[eLuSiVeMiTe]

Very true. I'll amend my statement to im scared of falling.
