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

[4String.]

Shall have to look at those myself then.. didn’t know they existed..

Bench tested it today prior to fitting it next weekend and I'm impressed with it.

With the fan at full chat it almost lifts the whole unit off the bench so that should be an end to a van filled with odours of cooking and flatulence...

Three pieces of nice plywood, only need one for the new workbench top, but the price was just too good!

And a roll of glass fibre to fit in the garage loft as there isn't any!

Is that a Serrow?

Got given a couple of pine shelving units from Ikea early 90s so I butchered one for my under bench storage unit, just need a load of ikea boxes now.

A new project.

Won't take delivery for another week or two as it's currently in the care of the transporter, and I'm in no rush for it to be delivered as it's been a bit of an impulse acquisition and I've got other things to get done before looking at it, however it's got a 80'000rpm spindle, a granite base, and a 4th axis.

Presumably this?

Another prescription for steroids and anti-biotics. I went into the walk in centre this morning, wheezing and coughing and short of breath, 8 hours later come out of hospital with pneumonia and drugs.

One of those.
Mine is currently with LandyLift, as the seller wanted them gone due to an impending house move, so LandyLift popped across and collected it yesterday since he was free, which is good service considering I only contacted him for a rough price at the start of the week, and he only got the full details on Thursday.
Just need to arrange the logistics of getting it North, and figuring out where I'm going to put it, as workshop space is somewhat tight since the CNC Router got wedged in...

Steve is good people, he has moved all of my heavy machinery and all on time, without drama at a price that I could cope with.

I didn't want it but the price was right. Needs a polish...

They let you out?, I was stuck in hospital for a week when I went to A&E with pneumonia.

Went to a local yard sale on this morning.
It has been the first time for me.
I've got an engine driven welder for 30 euro, 30 euro...
Less than 25£
Picture later but
It's either a MO.SA MS170 or MSG170 compact
From the same guy I've got a Morse taper hand held drill for 10 euro
He proposed me an AEG drill Morse taper 3 but it was severely damaged plus he said he tested it, it spins and hammers very well , this statement equals he didn't tested it because it's a slow speed drill meant to be installed on a magnetic base so no hammer function.

I've been kept in for previous bouts of it, the last time was combined with sepsis but I think this time wasn't so serious and they were desperate for beds, 2 of the 8 hours at hospital was spent sitting in the back of the ambulance chatting with the paramedics.

 

[Memmeddu]

As promised, here's it

It's a MOSA MS170-N
So no auxiliary 220V DC output

I've tried to start it but, apparently it doesn't sparks

I've had a look through the exhaust port and the cylinder looks pretty good I'll give it a little hone just to remove few little scratches.
Piston is little blackened so I think piston rings need to be replaced

Unfortunately I've lend my GenSet engine driven welder and it doesn't start anymore.
Tomorrow after work I'll take it back home and have a look at it.
Now this little MOSA if I manage to get it running would be my backup to get a job done.
Or at least it would be till I fix my GenSet.
Plan is to restore it (thread on here and YouTube video obviously) and sell it for a profit.
Same faith for my Pramac 4.5kW generator because I'm aiming to buy this one

GenSet MPM 8-315
2 cylinder diesel engine (most likely Lombardini or Kohler)
8kW 400V
6kW 230V
315A
Electric starter
No electronics
Obviously expensive and out of budget

@Memmeddu them little 2 stroke mossas are loud but great little machines

I know that in fact I'm kinda thinking about keeping it but in reality why would I need it?
Fast little jobs because it's extremely portable because it's only 20kgs but it lacks the auxiliary power output and I would have to take the Pramac Genny with me anyways
So at this point it would be a nonsense...
My GenSet is heavier and bigger despite they have both 170A but it does 4.5kW 400V and 3kW 230V too .
If it was the 220V output model I would have seriously consider to keep it but without that it has to go

Today I treated myself to a 10 inch extension

It’s for those tight awkward places you need to weld. Bends in all directions, simply screws into the end of your mig torch.

I walked past a skip this morning. There's a large pallet truck lying on its side in the bottom. I wish I had the energy and interest to dig it out

Too many other projects to worry about.
