I'm guessing "Ever Green" finally docked + unloaded.

 

[Cobbler]

I was driving back from Cirencester today & I spotted a truck with an Ever Green shipping container on it, so perhaps it had Big Egg’s bits on.

That looks like the same one I bought & I've been very impressed with it. One (very small) warning: the fitted battery in the one I bought was fully charged and it came with a spare battery. I assumed the spare was also fully charged and kept using it until (after many months) the first battery ran out mid-hair-cut. I went and got the other battery expecting to just be able to carry on and found that the spare was provided flat, so I had to wait for a battery to charge before finishing my hair cut! The spare is now charged and ready to go for next time (when the battery finally runs out again).

If you have battery failure during a trim it can be very awkward..

Did a bit of trading and got myself a York 100A swivel vice. It is a smart little thing.

Roughtrax delivered these for the Surf yesterday,

Not sure when I'll get time to fit them though.

I saw an old BMX bike in a skip a while ago and noticed the cranks were out of the ordinary , turns out " Middleburn " are a super high end brand and I just sold them for £68.

Kerching!

I've got Pedders springs on the rear with Monroe shocks that I fitted last year, no more bottoming out at the dump now over the rubber speed humps!

 

[Maker]

I acquired; a box, if only I could get it open!



Very well packaged Johnnybravo, thanks a lot.

Did manage to get in eventually, it's my new single lip cutter grinder. Wanted one of these for years (ever since I started watching Stefan Gotteswinter ). Need to figure out how to wire the motor for 230v before I can do anything.

My Zoro order arrived today thanks to @doubleboost 's bad influence, I made up the order to £20 to get free postage , one item not in stock but still got free postage

Who ever said that romance was dead?

 

[slim_boy_fat]

My Zoro order arrived

Those drills are excellent, Tom [well, for my needs ]. I now have 3 sets having bought them over different orders.

 

[Kram]

That tap chart looks useful didnt see it. My Zoro arrived

Parallels are massive but they are rough saw cut on ends, so less useful than I thought they'd be. Nothing escaped out the hole in the box!

 

[Woody.v8]

Some more moggy bits for the stockcar.

 

[Olderisbetter]

Left on the drive for me a bit of thick wall pipe about 20 inches long
