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

[Maker]

Try to obtain the manual adapter - it's really nice to have.

I've been looking out for one, there's one on eBay now for £15, doesn't seem too bad a price.

I see what you mean about it feeling smooth and silky, which is pleasantly surprising being made of plastic.

Anyway, let's go!


This Shanghai film has a blue base, that's a bit weird isn't it?

Returned a hopeless parkside hot air gun, but didn't stop me picking up more tat
Actually the ss esd coated tweezer sets for £6 are pretty ok + handy little pouch.
SDS+ set for £3 and wood bothering multi tool bits for £2

I got an Elliott 10M shaper a few days ago and a small donkey saw (The Benchmaster Senior).

Since I already have a donkey saw (Qualters & Smith) this little one went to my friend.

I am sure I will make a thread on the Elliott 10M soon.

Now, who is hoarding all the shaper tooling?

 

[Brad93]

Where do these shapers come up for sale? I never see them

FB Marketplace. It came from a school in Chatham. I had to wait for about three weeks before I could collect it on a Saturday (rules with safe guarding children at school etc.).

A few broken ribs.

I think I need a beer.
Or putting down.

What have you done?
I hope you're taking something 'for medicinal purposes'

 

[Bornfree]

Got some wood bothering to do next week. Trying to make some shiplap.

He's just one of those naturally clumsy types!

They limp among us......

My new easy lift AJS twin and Matchless single centre stands back from the powder coaters:

This is the standard stand , as you can see the extended pedal section gives you leverage to make use much easier:

Much fun awaits trying to reel it on the spool for developing. Springy stuff.

Don't put the lad off ....

 

[Robotstar5]

A certificate to say my breathing is improving due to the exercise classes

No idea what the acronyms mean but as long as the right hand number is higher than the left it's good.

 

[Farside]

Breathing?
Yes.
Oh, good.

 

[JEZGUZ]

I need to sort out my lungs, but haven't been able to get a face to face with the doc, out of breath just going up and down stairs.

Just be bloody careful with that, I thought I was out of condition and the reality is my heart is failing. Get to the doctors today if you have any doubts!

Well, today (yesterday) I finally managed to get my new tyres fitted:



Kleber Quadraxer all season. I won't post the pic of the old tyre up as it is bloody embarrassing!

Hope they've sorted you out

Absolutely agree with this. I've got a chest X ray later today. I've had a persistent cough for 12 wks. Also had a mole removed in December after being "bullied" into it by my two daughters. Anyway that came back as cancerous so I'm back in tomorrow for an op to remove more from my face and skin graft from my shoulder. Surgeon said I should thank my girls for persistently telling me to get checked, it's early stages and he's confident he can get it all.
So any doubts about anything health related, get checked out. It's so, so important!

 

[Nick DV]

looks like the old fuel filter was last changed in 2017

Ooops Is that the Roughtrax service kit? I've always used their aftermarket filters but I use mineral oil in mine rather than the semi synth.

I did last week on spec from lidl - its going straight back for a refund, I can breath hotter, total rubbish, got a corded Dewalt which is great and thought it would be a god addition, alas not unless its fualty...

I bought 3 from Lidl but the last time they had them in, not recently. Only want them for doing the odd bit of on site heat shrink.

I need to finish off the Makita battery to Parkside adapter and DeWalt battery to Parkside one as that's for a mate who's a DeWalt fanboy.
