Twins, double trouble / fun.....

Do you speak from experience, Mat?

I remember ours (boy: girl) as toddlers would be sitting playing together, then just look at each other and without a word being exchanged get up and go to start another game/activity.

It was a bit spooky, like some sort of telepathy.

replace battery with one of these

Ive had a few ideas to upgrade the battery situation, in the end keep coming back to removing the cutter deck from the ride on and modifying that for him instead.
Although ben does have ideas to mount the 3lt engine out my car into a go kart

What mod are you doing to the gun?

What mod are you doing to the gun?

I've been using a tire pressure monitor to get the air pressure on my gf3, that is the black thing. GF3 has a nice space on the top but the R150 is too risky drilling there, so Ive put it opposite the fan control. I like it, much nicer than having an extra thing on the air line.

Shown in use about 6 seconds in.

Very nice, I like that a lot.
Devilbiss would charge hundreds for that, Sata even more.
When are you making the heads up display for your air fed mask?

I used to be quite friendly with a pair of identical twins, they thought as one, as you say telepathically. The two of them would hold a conversation with you, but speaking as one, half a sentence each! Far closer to each other than brothers.

The tpms set cost about £12, I think its better than the expensive screen on gun things

8V1-32 threads are a pain, cant find any dies so I took it from a valve stem, silver soldered together.

What gun is that? Gives a good finish

 

[Kram]

Ani GF3 and R150, both essentially the same gun but the R150 tips are better quality, and why it costs 3x more.

pit metalwork painted.

that's it bar the ladder and the cover.

 

[bigegg]

scotch bonnet + ginger hot sauce.
Needs 5-6 weeks to ferment.

I call it "jihadi" hot sauce, because I tell everyone that it's too hot to eat and it kills the non-believers.

 

[Maker]

Present for someone.



Been a few years since I last made one, I'm quite pleased with it.

 

[Olderisbetter]

Made a jig and holder for 5 inch sanding discs out of some dowels and a bit of timber it works quite average

 

[ajlelectronics]

Five of my next batch of Ibus radio converters. I have twenty to do, but these have taken me all day! One didn't function properly so I had to rework it.

 

[My Old Landy]

I had to clean up my hot works area today so I could do some hardening. I made a grill for using the plasma (and to fill the hole I put in the bench a year ago!)
Quite pleased with it and the fact I actually did some welding

 

[Woody.v8]

A tickle up of the old back end, suits you sir!

finishing touch

 

[roofman]

Recently picked up a very heavy cast iron table from zzr1200 but needed it a bit mobile so pics tell todays story..My old Safmig was right on its limits but just about got enough heat in to get the job done (incidentally the best welder ive ever owned and ive had a few over the years). Dont know what John thinks but this thing must be close to 350KG.

 

[Kram]

I had some good results with silverflow 55 brazing with mapp recently so had another go at the er40 collet chuck. Well it sticks, took a bloody lot of heat and still was not quite hot enough to flow properly. Ive got some ideas, I might try reheating it tomorrow, but I think itll be good enough. Does mean I'll need to face and recut the taper.
