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

[Mick Annick]

I get it from a jotun supplier,always satin,it’s a bit too quick drying sometimes,especially when it’s warmer,so ask them for a slower one,I also specify for brushing,however I occasionally spray with it ,just using standard thinners,it’s a lovely tough finish,the next day it resists the thumb nail scrape.

Thanks Nick, I’ll track some down when I’m over there next week.

Must be a day for getting cars, we travelled 380 miles to view/buy a car for my youngest. Getting him one has been a struggle, had to be the right colour and the right spec. Kids are to fussy.

In a nice way I'd tell you what to do with them but this threads in the public arena
I'm not into giving non members inspiration anymore or giving lurkers ideas to make money off my madness.
That's what the interweb is for.

it wont fit on the cart I've spent quite a few hours butch em fabricating . I never gave a cooler a thought while doing it I've cut the width down massively to save space and made just a little wider than the transtig , Could end up another roundtuit project
it's a wierd sort of case as well top base and sides are all one piece and access is the two removable end panels .

Nice Italian unit

 

[Memmeddu]

Bought new shock absorbers and rear mirror for my car (mot test soon)

And a pretty serious bench vise
125mm forged steel , replaceable jaws , adjustable guide, swivel base (which will not used) ,built in pipe jaws .
A nice blue chunk of steel , bought just because was cheap for what it is (saved about 80 euros )

A nice sunny spot on my elevated deck overlooking the woods.
