Yes it is, but I will admit I have never used it in the 20 years I have owned it!
I bet I'll be saying the same regarding that throatless shear I bought, 19 years from now.

Thinking about it, this tool would have been great back in the day when I was working with Formica laminates.Blades break very easily.....don’t ask how I know...![]()

The GF was one of the top people involved with them sausages going into production. Not a vegan or veggie myself but I was surprised at how 'meaty' they are.View attachment 286713Richmond veggie sausage to go with my fake bacon, they are as good as the real thing according to the neighbours and family who have just eaten 3 packs![]()
To be honest that looks very similar to snap on ones of that age. Even the handles and catches.Today i aquired a Beach tool box, it’s empty, and weighs a ton... its a very, very well made bit of kit, that easily rivals snap-on at a fraction of the priceView attachment 286736

I can measure up and get the roof ordered tomorrow morning
I had never heard of Beech toolboxes however there is a large double width Beech roller cab top and bottom section in a workshop I have recently purchased. I presumed it was a cheap Snap On copy.Today i aquired a Beach tool box, it’s empty, and weighs a ton... its a very, very well made bit of kit, that easily rivals snap-on at a fraction of the priceView attachment 286736
You will have to post a picI had never heard of Beech toolboxes however there is a large double width Beech roller cab top and bottom section in a workshop I have recently purchased. I presumed it was a cheap Snap On copy.
There's no actual meat in a Richmond sausage anyway, they are made from ground up pig skin and mechanically recovered slurry .
The squares may have had a base on them. I bought one similar to this when I lived in France its really handy. Setup SquareWhilst i'm in a world of daft questions, what are these three dimples on the bottom of each one? Please.View attachment 286417
I think someone has already mentioned this but that looks like the HVLP air compressor from a Flamefast brazing setup. I have one still inside its metal case.Two of these things. I don’t really know what they are (apart for heating torches obviously), but they were part of a pewter casting setup.
The straps on the while cylinders pop off but the stack of discs won’t come apart the just rotate.View attachment 286322

The left hand wall as you look at the picture faces my garden, so I cleaned up and re-used the bricks that came down from the original back wall so it matches in pretty well, the back wall is against the existing garden wall which is much taller so nobody can see it and the right hand wall faces the neighbours garden, theres a 6ft high fence hence using the poorly matching bricks at the bottom and the better ones nearer the top.Nice. I could easily double my (double) garage size but live in an AONB!
How come you went for brick sides rather than block?
