Made a bracket for my belfast sink in the yard all done with recycled bits

If it's of interest finished the plastering few days back.




My last commitment on this build is the external render.

Finally after almost a year (well an entire office had to be built in that time) I've found a home for @David_W's old etching tank. This tank is a little more advanced in some respects than my father's (a big spray etching one) in that it has a developer tank, spray tank and etching tank. Thus not only has power for the heaters but a water intake and a drain - which made it more complicated... It seemed a shame not to enable that feature but I'd already decided (if it'd work) a nice spot for it would be under the sink. So an old set of drawer runners that were saved from the bonfire were utilised, an off-cut of flooring and some CLS.

Now I need to start mixing up some ferric chloride and running trails to dial in the whole process now.

I have the slightly bigger version of that complete with built in sink, and the processing and tinning tanks and bubblers surplus to my needs if anyone fancies one for a modest wad.

I’ve got another Mini to start metal work on soon but my other rotisserie is out on loan so I stuck some tubes together to work with my spare set of A frames.

I have to build one for my 126P

 

[Memmeddu]

Almost encountered my death.
I was driving on a turn uphill, when I've seen a car going straight onto driver side door (left in Italy) with big and super bright headlights on .
Blinded in a fraction of a second I've driven my car into a ditch .
The MF driving the other car is criminal who thinks he's the boss .
He was most likely at around 120 140km/h downhill
It's a miracle I've managed to avoid the crash.

Removed the engine from the 126p
And that's the damage

Working on finding a new engine or a block .
If I can save the crankshaft, I'll dismantle the engine and take the crankshaft to work,were I'll check it on the shaft giurnals grinder ,for straightness a wear
Hopefully it's fine, hopefully

Deep throat and a deep back is what you want. Must have the table insert too, its a precision part. Balls are easy to come by but grab as much tooling as you can!

Why.... oh... why.... does Linda Lovelace keep coming to mind?

Can you send me some details?

Here is a photo of the model but not mine as I'm not at the workshop at the moment. Mine has some ferrite chloride staining but otherwise much as per photo. I've not used it in the last 5 years so it's time to move it on.

It's completely self contained, just needs 250v 13a socket, water feed and a drain connection. If I remember correctly there a also quite a few spares and chemicals in the cupboards.

Open to offers

@awemawson - now why didn't you post that about 2 weeks ago - would have saved a lot of faffing about with flexible drain hoses etc

You can never have too many.

And the first attempt. Given I cocked it up quite royally it's still a decent attempt at dialing in the settings.

The smaller tracks were just to see how they'd turn out. It'd be very surprising if I needed to go below 0.25mm/10mil tracks.
