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

[mpats]

Today I acquired a new phone, A Samsung galaxy S8. Yeah, it was expensive, but so are EWM tigs and no one complains about those.

I'm a big fan of the 7 so doubt you'll go wrong with it, just don't drop it

I really need a case for it, it's so thin and slippery.

Got this to replace the single phase jobby on my lathe for the princely sum of £25. Never been used, spins smooth as you like and is 'kin heavy!!

The inverter (Siemens micro master) didn't like it at first (the motors a funny American 9 lead type, connected in YY configuration for 240 volts) but an auto tune sorted it out and now runs a treat.

TYA hadn't been there before you, had he?

@HughF
I know. Very disappointing. But did get some coffee beans.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

@slim_boy_fat
YES.

We were heading into trowbridge to get paintbrushes from wickes and a breakfast from the burger van there when my wife suggested we go to standerwick because 'someone will have paint brushes'. No paint brushes and an overpriced fritata for breakfast.

I suspect our paths will cross at some point...

A yellow ardvark should be fairly noticeable strolling down the road, not many about

Orange ex-rac transit, you can't miss me...

Could this be the starting of the first annual mig welding forum carboot fight? Get two members at the same carboot and let them both "discover" a strategically placed and cheaply priced engineering item, then watch the sparks fly?

There was a nice surface marking gauge base at standerwick, did @The_Yellow_Ardvark spot that?

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

@HughF
Mised that, did you see the stand with the Mamods?
