Today I acquired some carb vac gauges, need these to set up some itb’s on some v8 silliness, also need to build a manifold and check they all read the same.

They look like the gauges we use an air sampling pipes.
They normally are close enough.

Saw this being taken to a skip, so I offered to help them, gave them some folding money.
£10.

I've got a set of those. They probably won't read the same but you can adjust the needle reading. Tee them all together and apply a vacuum, then twist off the front plastic lens and use a screwdriver to adjust the needle using that screw on the face just below the word 'vacuum'.

Mind those poxy vac lines they supply melt very easily.

A 3" tyre gauge MA&TA Birmingham maker

Bit of an awkward font, especially on the cast back, but it's a Lucas Masta gauge, made by Lucas. The script S is the opposite direction to an ampersand. It's probably tripled its resale value now

Also acquired the "ahh that hard..." part of "how hard can it be" to strip and repair this hilti te80

Look for Gbh5dce Conrod 90% will fit .
Don't know how work over there but over here you cannot get any replacement parts from Hilti if you don't have the receipt

Planning to finish the mechanic pit and surely needing to use the Husky K770 to cut through the granite before to use the big Kango to dig the remaining 20cm I have to remove from the bottom of the pit.
I've been thinking about using some sort of gravity or pump feeder water supply but honestly this thing was too cheap and time saver and surely cobbling something to serve the purpose isn't worth my time.

So I got this evolution 15 litres manual pump, meant to be used with their electric cutoffs but it uses standard garden hose fittings so it will fit my Husky no problems
50 euro + shipping.
3 metres hose, pressurized tank

I am £50 poorer

Pulled from the same skip, as the Woden Pipe vice yesterday.

But it had a sad lil friend.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

It sad friend.

 

[jimbo84]

Never owned or used one before, made things a lot easier today though.

I was impressed to find it came with a case and some spare seals and some air tool oil.

Thankfully the te70 uses same parts as the te80 it appears (no idea why the lower number version is the more powerful version ) and good ol'aliexpress to the rescue at £10 vs £30+ on ebay! Https://a.aliexpress.com/_ExrNkqo

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

I also got this yesterday.

 

[Jaeger_S2k]

Playing catchup, again. But got lots today.

Pfanner Chainsaw Trousers

Arrived a little damp from washing by seller. But, great condition and fit!

 

[Jaeger_S2k]

Finally, bit the bullet, and got a decent ear pliers and single ear clamps.

 

[Jaeger_S2k]

There's more, got the printer a few weeks ago, (sorry should have said).
But got some tapes for it today.

 

[Jaeger_S2k]

Wait, you got it.
My favourite glove people, HandyLandy
2 styles, warm lined and unlined, 2 pairs of each.

 

[Jaeger_S2k]

I know, it's getting tedious....

First Temu purchase. Haven't got feedback on quality, but all looked capable.
