The angle drills are alright. If mine broke I wouldn’t replace it but I’ve air ones. The 90 degree impact it really useful on heavies and plant.I want the ratchet impact thing but I don’t think I can justify it haha, only other thing I’d like really is the angle drill.
Already done that
I’ll have a look. I want a 16pc set. I have a socket rail and some foam coming to make my own inlay for it all to fit in one box.
Snap on impacts and drills are so rubbish. The guy at work has them, he really doesn’t understand how crap they are.
Sockets and things are a personal choice. I prefer the Halfords ratchets as they are more like the snap On ones and nicer to hold. Their warranty is ok but the service depends on which spotty serves you.
Teng is increasingly becoming my go to. One because we have a decent dealer and two, because the warranty.

A champagne box, steel, with a pull out draw:
...and in it a reel of solder, some impact bits, pyro tools, airline adapter and a 12V test lamp:
What to do with the box? Case for my cordless grinder with disc storage below?

My friend just paid £30 on a bottle of oil for me as a "Thank you."
At first I was disapointed that she spent so much on such a thing.
Just a very small bottle of Shell oil.
Ok it was in the original box.

I got a few other bits today, when I was out with my friewnd.
Some I paid for, some she paid for.
Dull bits for on going restoration projects on the go.
I used to joke she could rock my world.
So we found this, so now she can spin me right round.
A working Meccano Magic motor, that bottle of oil again and a date stamped Slater scale set.
Oh My
Any one who has been on HMS Caroline, may have seen this item before.
It is the only place I have seen them, as they should of been removed, made safe and dispossed of.

Some storage tubs from Wilko. They had big 145L and 75L garden tubs for £15 and £10 each.
Similar to this https://www.wilko.com/en-uk/charles-bentley-strata-2-x-145l-heavy-duty-trunk-on-wheels/p/0501070
And some smaller "under bed storage" types which should suit my anodising experiments.

Well, I'm hoping to put something in them, and also hopefully label them so I can remember what I've put in them. But perhaps back in the skip if there's no other option.Back in the skip then

A few weeks ago, a good friend told me the toy bazaar was visiting a part of Tel Aviv. A place she can stop by if I wanted her too.
Thinking nothing more off it I suggested that she looks out for the Mamod/steam store and see if they had the old style whistles.
Hoping they did and I could send her the funds for them.
Today this arrived.
I have removed the custom stickers and the details of the address it was sent from.
Now I was expecting a small letter size delivery. I was a shocked when this arrived.
Knowing my friend likes a joke, who doesn't?
Two classic Mamod Steam whistles.
Plus newspapers.
The box was far from empty.
BUBBBBBBLE WRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now you can just see whats in it.
This was a case of put the coffee down, resist the poping of bubbles.
A complete Mamod Workshop.
An old one.
The Top RHD is a punch, not the press.
Happy me.

2 stainless steel folding shelf brackets.
I wanted a small shelf beside my lathe for a toolbox and wanted it collapsible, for access to the back of the lathe: these seem ideal.
