@spencer 427 I see you have given up on using a mug for scale and are now using farm machinery for scale.

My next project.

View attachment 236729

Morris 1000, 1966 needs a good tidy up, bit of welding and a respray. Going to start stripping it tonight.

That looks tidy, i have 4 1/2 (don’t ask about the 1/2). Just about to get one back out of the workshop following a quick resto that has taken 6 years with other jobs in-between!

Got to change the gearbox on my traveller next then hoping to start my Zetec powered project car based a 1959 2 door.

They are great to work on, get yourself a decent set of whitworth sockets & spanners and you will be good to go!

..... a few bits for the lathe.
QCTP and a couple of tool holders plus a 1MT live centre.
The QCTP is a “Machfit 250-000” gib type.
All from Banggood.

A replacement for my old three speed Ryobi drill kindly donated by @Dogruffracing.

I forgot how heavy they were compared to the newer ones.

A push bike!

No real clue about them, alooominum frame so nice and light, suspension (comfort not speed) and a good price. Its had a few bits like new pedals and a few cables. I've got a seat on order too.

Only bike I've had with disc brakes, they seem poor compared to the V brakes on a bike I was given but they might adjust, not even looked really

 

[Memmeddu]

The thing came home this morning
I'll repair it probably next week

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

A few nice items arrived here for Me!!!!!!

Yes, just Me.



A few batteries and one PP7 to PP3 adapter.

First use of one was to give a decent battery to a WW2 American Signal lamp.



The bulb is the original, as far as I can tell by the marking on it.


Finaly. after a few false starts.
Not the supplier fault, but a manufacturing fault. A V belt for my pump.





The motor stand needs a bit of adjustments, but as it stands it works.

Yeah if it was £500 it would be a good buy always wanted a radial.
Work had a beautiful Asquith. Much later though.
