Arrived in the post roday all the way from China , ten left hand thread 6mm countersunk Philips headed machine screws . A few months ago I stripped a dead heavy duty SDS hammer drill that had a spare SDS stemmed 13mm chuck
Trying to undo the lh thread securing screw that prevents the chuck unwinding when in reverse I sheared the screw using a hex headed engineers screwdriver & a 13MM ring spanner. Close inspection on looking at the sheared head showed it had been dot punched / staked on the outer rim to stop it coming undone , as well as the screw itself appearing to have had a coat of thermoplastic locking glue. on several threads . I used a 20 ounce old fashioned copper soldering iron to warm up the screw before taking it out with the vice .
Several you tubers have a strange way of attempting a keyed chuck removal on Makita hammer drills ... It's good for a laugh if you have half an hour or so to spare .

Not today, but maybe three weeks ago I acquired something, which I didn't know what it was on one of my two legs.
Showed my leg to a friendly retired doctor.
Yay, I've got Ringworm.
Super !

Ding Dong. In 1968.
I had it from my arm pits to my knees before it was confirmed from skin samples . Heaven knows where I got it from I was a clean living young man in those days . Doc said you get it from working with animals , worrying as I was a soldier in those days ..they were all animals

Do you need to confide in us what you have been up to?

Where did I get ringworm from, absolutely no idea, I initially thought it was insect bites in the garden, we've two dogs +1 the ex neighbours, who's hospitalized.Do you need to confide in us what you have been up to?
I'd assumed ringworm was a parasite, but it's a fungal skin thing, treated with Canestan types creams, at least I know what it is and I can treat it.

When my wife was a confidential PA many many years ago she had to type up the strange case of a young male being found at 22 .15hrs screaming like crazy in the middle of field containing a cow & her calf , his hands & waist area covered in cow muck he'd also got a broken rh hip & leg , his jeans off one leg and a bent up six foot folding step ladder on its side , there was a couple of massive RHR cow hoof print son his hip area & leg .catch it of cows
Lucky to be alive alive apparently , as most cows with calf's also stamp on their victims , the police & and paramedic air ambulance had to wait for the farmer to get control off the cow and calf . I wonder what they wrote in their incidence logs ?

So I went to see the egg man today who chops up sticks for a living and also sells a bit of veg, anyhow he likes tractors a lot and has about 16 of various ages and he lent me a fuel pump sediment bowl to get our little Leyland running while I was waiting for the replacement, the guy also collects other stuff like 2 great big helicopters and a load of spares none of which are airworthy but in the don't want pile was this manifold which caught my eye, £5 english pounds changed hands and it came home!!
Think it must be titanium as it seems very light and well made, think its going to be a bit of wall art in the workshop
I know we have a few aeroplane types here anyone got any ideas what its off?

It's far more common than that.catch it of cows
I only know about it, as I picked it up somewhere at the start of the year.
It's actually a fungal infection, but on healthy unbroken skin, it usually won't get into your skin.
It's also far more slow growing than what I thought it was.
I'm not sure where I initially picked it up (could have either been at the swimming pool, or digging in the forest), but I thought it was just a patch of eczema at the top of my leg.
It took a couple months for it to develop into a ring, and even then the pharmacist wasn't entirely sure it was ringworm.
The first two creams only partially worked, but by that time it had spread to my upper arm. I'd scraped all my upper arm with pine needles, and it turns out when I sleep, I move my arm between the top of my leg, and laying it on top of my other arm.
Ended up at the GP, as the pharmacist couldn't prescribe anything stronger.
The patch on my leg cleared up within days using the stronger cream, but my arm took a couple weeks, and it's still visible under certain conditions two months later :/
