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

[Brad93]

100%. I love gambling on lorch welders, as usually there's nothing much wrong with them. I'll probably sell this one straight on, although it's got speedarc which mine doesn't...
I think the S8s at work, one has done 2400 hours, the other only 600 odd. Still weld like new.

Never got on with that speedarc particularly, I usually go back to standard spray. always find it a bit spattery.

I might be interested depending on price
I've already got a torch and a cooler

Got few things in those days plus a 120 euro kidneys visit in the hospital on this morning
Anyways

A phone stand because I'd like to restart to make videos and this thing would offer better shots than the tripod due to its adjustability.

I've then found an used 7" handguard for my M4 because I've broken mine and it's held in place by zip ties.
It would work as temporary replacement because I'd like to fix the original one and keep that as spare.

I've found other two G&G Hi-Cap stanag mags offered a lower price just for those two and said the seller to keep the P-MAG because I already know it won't work on mine, plus I have a bunch of mags .
But those work the best on my AEG

I've bought those two a month or so ago but never delivered, asked eBay and deleted the order but eventually the seller contacted me apologizing because he lost the password and he didn't know I've bought them.
We eventually come to a settlement and I've got those delivered.
I'm waiting for those.
So I've ended up (not yet but soon) with 8 G&G Hi-Cap stanag mags, and other 5 unbranded mags that work fine but they randomly have feed issues like dry firing every once in awhile.
They are usable but on full auto only.

Another little helicopter for my Lego collection.
I've got it delivered on yesterday morning and I think I'm going to assemble it right now

This has a bad connection where the 12v comes out so it was put for the bin, if I hold the connector it works and I seem to notice they still sell this model but it has a lead hanging out now, maybe a common fault?View attachment 500228

Its French, known to protest!

[My Old Landy]

My battery arrived..... It's rather large and I can't lift it, but it should be ok in the caravan
Very well packaged.

I decided on just fitting a new winch to my Landy, arrived today:

I went for the military grade winch with a galvanised drum and improved corrosion measures.

Assuming it is 3 phase you could fit a vfd and that will give you variable speed and save a lot of belt changing.

That's exactly what I'll do

military grade

Aka made to the lowest acceptable quality and overpriced

In my case it was a little extra for a galvanised winch drum and allegedly better corrosion protection for the rest of the winch. I had to repaint my old superwinch a few times over the years, so thought worth a punt.

My FIL did his time here ,became a foreman,joined after.er national service,only left in 1999,when they closed the factory,they’re still in business though,over 200 years! Made a lot of steam engines,they have a huge forged crankshaft in the science museum,pioneers of commercial refrigerators. Richard Trevithick worked there whilst he was in his prime years.

I’d been after a set of these for a while and this came up on Facebook Marketplace for £25 and local. Only one bit had been used so bargain

Yesterday i was needing an oil drum to make a burner for garden rubbish at mother in laws jungle. Got home & one pops up on our local community fb page, free. So i shoot round there & pick it up. Turns out to be a BarrelQ barbecue, The grill &firebasket fits any standard oil drum & it appears to have barely been used. So our Son is happy cos he wants a barby & I have a burner, just got to find another barrel now!
