5/- from a charity shop, OH reckons it's perfect the man who won't grow up .

I used to get £4 a time for that book in my shop - and sell a couple of copies a week.

VV means Vinyl Insulation & Vinyl Sheath. So PVC for both parts

 

[Memmeddu]

Didn't know it broke down like that, that's really interesting. All I knew was H07RN-f is rubber insulated and very nice to handle.

H=harmonized cenelec codes
07=up to 700V
R=natural rubber conductors insulation
N=neoprene cord
F=flexible stranded conductors

I love this one ,I prefer to use it for everything that has to be handled ,like extension cords, power cords or other mobile applications

Last of this year's tomatoes and cucumbers from the allotment...back to tasteless supermarket salad

not today but about 5 days ago i aquired this,

she is a CCM 450 Adventure and is great fun, the single cylinder BMW engine is plenty torquey enough for me, and i must admit it's great to be back on 2 wheels.

Not had the pleasure yet, but I had a look at their website while looking to book a meal for her and BIL. Couldn't find anywhere so ended up having a bottle of champagne and some other goodies sent up to her by courier, and yes it invoked the Yorkshire Warcry .

However, on the recommendations of my neighbour across the road and the rail guy in Dingwall today, here's the latest purchase:




One for BIL, one for my neighbour, and one for me . And having unloaded the better part of 100 ton of rail from 4 artic trucks today, I reckon I've earned some for my tea .

And me, yesterday, it's this forums fault for bringing it to my attention and while I was there I picked up one of their Workwear soft shell jackets

The problem I’ve got with that is the cable is clearly PVC

I take it you have a preference for silicone or rubber cable?

Right, I've worked out which ones are the tomatoes . . .

 

[Pigeon_Droppings2]

Lemon cucumbers I think they are called...at least that's what I call them.

They taste like cucumber...been an excellent year for tomatoes this year.

Got one of the Lidl flexible lights. Nowhere near as good as the clip one I got last year. Stainless housing /flex. Instructions say do not mount on metal surface!?
Problem no earth conductor and its really stretching the definition of double insulated.

yes they were pretty spendy, i got mine from a mate who has just bought a KTM 690 enduro which is a very nice bike, the 450 was cheap enough for me to say yes and my Mrs to say I want a new kitchen lol.

Some of you may recognise them. I might document the build. There again, depending on the finished article, I might not.

They are 1.5mm Stainless and I sparked the Tig up to have a bit of a practice run. It was as if I had totally forgotten how to weld!

Couple of inches of weld later it all came back and I was away again. No bloody goodbeing this busy, haven't touched the Tig in about eight weeks. No good at all.
