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

Not much use when they open the roof like a tin of beans, guess it keeps the insurance company happy

Under no illusion that if they want in they'll be in or they'll just take the whole van. It's an older berlingo and more just to put off an opportunist that may know of a quick and easy way into the the back of it by defeating the manufacturers locks.

I have a coffin type box in the back too that the only quick way into is by opening the left rear door. smashing windows won't get you into it.

If they smashed the back window glass the steel meshes wouldn't take a huge amount to defeat them either.

Today I acquired a bump cap sourced off ebay. Got to say, its ok, and comfortable. Sure beats wearing a regular hardhat for the type of renovations I'm doing to our project house.
Worth the £6.99 paid.

I like to think it’s my helpful nature

Today I acquired two of these straight edge clampy things from Lidl. Hopefully will be useful for running a router along and with two I can put one either side to make pockets wider than the cutter size.

You will discover that the twits who designed it made it slightly too short to go across a standard 8x4 sheet of ply.
Other than that it's a useful item.

Strangely enough it did... what am I supposed to do with a punctured tyre?

Ah the joys of vehicle ownership.

Just one of those things!

It was getting a little ropey, But needs replacing before I sell it

And modded the supposedly temp racking.

Easier to slide the saw in and out.

@eLuSiVeMiTe does that saw run on mains and batteries?
Pretty useful if it does!

Yeah it does

Yeah. As above. Has an adapter that fits in the dual battery slots.
Many times I make do with a skilly/Jigsaw/handsaw as pulling power outside or the saw inside is a ballache.

Need some hd drawer runners now. Will make it slide out to use in place for the odd cuts.
