Cost you not an arm and a leg, but 2 legs, or are you drunk(legless)

The only thing you should be using on a car tyre is a plug patch.
If you are really stuck and need to get home, possibly a tyre string as a temporary fix.

Those look exactly like what dentists use to fasten down implants

ehm the plastic cutting thing might seriously be an electrical wire shears.
If it's a 3M they are pretty expensive let's put it in this way
Guy I used to know used brass woodscrews in his tyres without a problem.
I had a woodscrew in the car tyre and it held pressure for a week without any problems before being repaired properly.

Parts for an Hitachi DH50SA

And to paint extra accessories for my gun (I have got them double but wrong color)
Also ordered consumables but those will arrive next week and it's easier to upload images once I have them handy

Free and it works?Not only did I drive in without the usual queues at the amenity centre to get rid of the hedge trimmings, but I managed to bring back a garage vacuum for free.

If not, it looks like a DC19 and as with most Dysons easy enough to fix.
Yes DC19, free and it works, gave it a wash off when I got home. The guy in front of me was going to chuck it so I asked if I could have it instead. I already have one which picks up chips, dust etc so this is a spare for when that goes wrong.

Finally got the speaker upgrade I’ve always wanted from the Celestion Ditton 25s (little ones still have 12” bass units though) to a very nice pair of Ditton 662s. They were a bit tight at first but they’ve loosened up with a bit of exercise. Awesome detail and clarity with bass to die for!

Yes. And it gets bigger by the day!
Nice one, I've been looking out for a street/skipped Dyson stick type.
I have one which was converted to run on my Makita batteries but it's an early version, not an awful lot of grunt, later ones had more suction.

Cycling home from the shed I spotted a small metal cabinet on the side of the road, similar to some larger ones that I acquired a year or two back, in that lovely brown colour with a beige door. Wondering why it was there, I saw this:
so I cycled home, thinking about whether it would fit in the car, and when I got home I decided that it would not. So, I got some gloves, walked back the 0.3 miles to the thing, decided it was light enough to carry, so I carried it home. It wasn't especially heavy, true, but it was amazingly awkward. It's just slightly too large to comfortably carry, and my gloves didn't grip all that well, so I had to keep stopping to adjust my grip on the thing. Anyway, I got it home. When I went to make some temporary room in the shed for it, I had to move the lightweight trolley that I decided I wouldn't need and wasn't worth dragging all that way, partly because if the cabinet had been taken while I was getting myself together, it would look as if I've just taken my trolley for an evening walk. Should have taken it.
Anyway, got a free cabinet, so that's nice. I'll recover soon.
