Disassemble all the brass items that you can and soak them overnight in a bath of "Apple Cider Vinegar". You will be amazed with the results. It will even free up frozen threads.This:

I've not seen it used - been sat in a tin cupboard since at least 1978 and probably a good few years before that - I can't remember any bottles being around to be used with it.
Is it worth anything - or do I throw it, separated out, into the scrap?
That has to be a Costin - at the very least, Costin inspired. Frank Costin - very clever bloke.Refound while rooting in the loft. A picture of my Bultaco 125 Pursang

Its all seems free - things tighten/loosen, fit, come off. But I have no use for it . . .Disassemble all the brass items that you can and soak them overnight in a bath of "Apple Cider Vinegar". You will be amazed with the results. It will even free up frozen threads.

Beautifully modelled, the ply finish had to be seen.Found it -
The three-wheeled car made from wood
It weighs just 900lb, has a top speed of 101mph -and is made entirely out of wood. It took furniture maker Friend Wood, 46, more than 2000 hours to build his three-wheel, tear-drop shaped car, which he has named 'Tryane II'www.dailymail.co.uk

They work really well, discard the exhaust pipe insulation, and buy decent stuff.As winter looms I've decided to join the Darwin Awards Dodgers Club (CO division) with a Webasto type copy diesel heater for the workshop.
It's the "8" kW model - which the spec says uses 0.46 Litres/hour, so by my calculations must also be pulling at least 3.14 kW of electricity.
From what I've seen on the Youtube most of the heat goes straight out of the exhaust so some kind of heat exchanger would be a good idea - a lot of people use wet systems but that seems unnecessary if it's not to store or move and just heat the air, so I'll think of something with a big surface area to send the exhaust through before it goes outside to fertilize the rain forests.

That sounds like a good idea, it is incredibly thin walled and who knows what it's made from.They work really well, discard the exhaust pipe insulation, and buy decent stuff.
If you can buy Webasto exhaust insulation, it's proper job.That sounds like a good idea, it is incredibly thin walled and who knows what it's made from.
That car is (or was anyway) not more than than 20 miles from me. Used to see it regularly, it’s owner wizzes around on a recumbent bike.Refound while rooting in the loft. A picture of my Bultaco 125 Pursang

Hello, you need a licence to fly a radio controlled plane? When did that come in?I just sat the test for a model aircraft/drone Flyer ID and got the Operators licence whilst at it
My neighbour gave me her (sadly deceased) husbands old fixed wing plane. I didn't know about the licences etc so fortunately I hadn't tried to fly it!
Anyway, all legal now and I am joining a club so the flying is in a controlled manner
