Today I tested the new stores ordering system by ordering a 32mm impact socket I need to remove the drive sprocket on my bike, the approval e-mail came through within 30 mins
We're in the middle of building a 4x4x4m x-ray bay in kit form: 6x3 timber frame with plywood cladding to which will be attached 24mm of lead in two layers of 12mm. Each lead panel 1000 x 500mm. Yes, bloody heavy.
Also building nine new radiation warning systems for the MOD.
I'm also about to modify a single-post car lift into a lifting jig for a £15000, 450kV x-ray head - so better make sure my best welding trousers are pressed
Meanwhile a pallet of 155mm artillery shells has landed for another job... pics tomorrow if I remember
Started cutting rusty bits of inner and outer wheelarch on wifes 21yr old car. Not got it all yet...
Bit worried how close it is to the fuel filler, come welding time...

I used to go to Bath Demo a lot, with work.
big toys for big boys.
I watched one day as the Boss picked up a coke can with a shear with out marking the can.
Ha, now that sounds like a challenge I am up for. A full can or an empty can?
