Today I acquired...........

[Dr.Al]

I flipped my temporary garage fencing upside down to keep the local cats from entering and pizzing & carping everywhere.

I ought to warn you: I think they'll still be able to get in through that gap... unless... how big are your local cats?!?!

And a dinky four speed Getrag, these things can poke up with serious abuse

£20, thats a victory !

 

[arther dailey]

Ive been involved in far worse , if my mate gets his **** in gear and fits a Hiab on his trailer it would be half the battle. Ive got a Hiab to go on my pickup but thats in bits too just bad timing. There must be loads of lathes in sheds that people find just to big for most folk to move

not for £100 though..

 

[dieselsamurai]

I have a pair of skates with large castors, used them to move a couple of M300's, your welcome to borrow them

Cheers i have machinery skates but would probably use scaffold tubes as there are loads of short ones everywhere, looks like the bottom of a Master is relatively flat otherwise id put it on planks . Had success moving a 1 1/2 ton Victoria mill a few months back just sliding it on thick plastic

Saved from going to a skip two Ferodo brake testers and a shredder which worked after clearing a blockage, plus some coach bolts donated to my collection.

If you double up your rollers you should be fine

Its to go behind a V8Ford in a silly little car, currently have the 265 dogleg getrag 5 speed version which is unnecessary as its direct top the same as the 4 speed, Its a bit of a weight/space saving and comes with a speedo drive

Those testers are good for old land rovers and other things that can’t go on the rollers.

A hex driver for roofing screws but this one is great has a ball bearing held in place by a spirolox ring.

^^^ what’s that m12 driver like? Been eyeing up the m18 one. I have to re educate myself that 12v isn’t crap

Can't speak for the m12 but have the m18 fuel (not the surge one) and it is brilliant. Built a large wooden structure in the garden and it drove 150mm m10 lags with ease. Snapped a 1/2" adaptor the other week

I have the older standard version and it's ok... nothing special, compared to 18v. The M12 Fuel stuff on the other hand... really decent. Cousin uses his every day.

Also used on kit cars if the tester knows his regulations

This just arrived

Cost more and worth more than the bleeding lathe
