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

If you want to measure flow the guaranteed way to do it is an orifice plate and inclined manometer, it's self adjusting for pressure, and once you have callibrated your orifice, bang on accurate. You can buy a dp transducer, connect a simple amplifier to it, an a to d converter, to a pc if you want.
I used to belong to an Umerican website, you could borrow a callibrated orifice, get plans etc. Job for when I retire...

After to buses in Bath and Bristol, then a trip to Cheltenham.
A f*****g Dick H*** had to demand that I attended his site, he had failed his Fire safety inspection.
So after getting to Turo, turns out all the work needed he had declined to have the work done. So I wrote it all up again.
So after he let me out into their rear yard, where I had parked, I spied a skip.

So I looked.
I was soon hooking stuff out.

There was 2 pillar drills but unless I emptied the whole skip one had to stay.




Tidy Battery charger.

NICE.



The tin was empty when I pulled it out, but I soon found the contents.



Soon to be tested, .




One of the rescued pillar drill, the other one was a cream colourer dome headed beastie.



The possible name is lost in some hard crud.


One Silver plated pepper pot, the salt one could not be found.
The plate mark dates it to 1908.


Three Siler plated items, Bristol blue glass inserts. The Plate mark indicates a possible Bristol design to 1895.
Research is on going.


But.

This item is small, but I like much.



1960's Mamod Oil bottle. The name is visible to the eye, but not clear to the camera.

I am impressed.

Battery charger works.
The little Bosh is fully charged now.

Awaiting delivery, but I've ordered two helicoil kits.

Used the Zoro 20% code. Made them the same price as the Recoil kits more or less.

I went in wurth today and they had no stock of M6 time serts and when they told me the kit price I fell on my ****. £129+VAT!!! You get 10 time serts!

I have m8, m2.5 m3, M5, some random BA & UNF.
Not a cheap endeavour.

Ive not tried the recoil or v cool but I've heard they are just as good.

I'd like to find a few time sert or keen sert sets but you just don't see them.

I've got a few V coil sets, but they're specific metric fine sizes for work on engines bought when i didn't have any other option... We have Helicoil, V coil and Recoil at work, all as good as each other IMO. Helicoil insert tools are easier to use than the others though.
One of these days if I'm feeling flush and see some repair work coming up I'll splash out on the common metric sizes... maybe
