Square jack thread and quality machining.
It's shame they got split up as a set.

Three clamps 2 x M&W (small and large) and one Starrett (medium).............£5.00.

4 core cable 1.5mm about 30m .............£10.00.

(Yesterday)

A layer of raw sewerage on the floor of the sun room,
courtesy of next door's plumbing.
Twice.

Being piccy, "sewage".
Sorry, not a nice thing. Is it next doors, or the water co.s fault?

Do you live in the Tardis?

Today at a local bootfair I acquired, for the pricely sum of £40, a pump for solar panels. Yep, you heard right. The house clearance man was adamant that this was the pump for solar panels. Who am I to argue? Yes mate, all I really want is the motor.

 

[Johnnybravo]

For those in the know, this is what it is. Been set up in some sort of test rig. I would guess probably a university project. According to Mr house clearance it came out of a huge deceased estate in Sevenoaks they cleared recently ( which I’m guessing had some solar panels in the garage! ). Oil is clean ,not a scratch on the impeller or housing. Doubt it’s run more than 30 minutes in total. Guess my A30 van is going to be supercharged after all

Yes, but you knew that.

Today I've finally got the big tap wrench in the mail

Fake Mitutoyo for size comparison
It was almost going to be sent back due to courier incompetence.
I was home last Friday evening because I was making my latest YouTube video.
And I was in front of my door, which is always oper till night .
I received a notification missed delivery, receiver not at home.
No courier manifested to my door.
Not even the delivery truck down the road.
I was enough upset.
But this morning coming back from work I've found the package .

Now the jaws open up to roughly 26mm .
I don't know how big of a tap it can take but I think up to M40 as the diagonal length of the square is 35mm

The handle is 22mm in diameter and it has M22x1.5 threads and can be screwed on both sides of the body
So not a big of a deal to make the missing one, which I think I would make it out of a car axle

The thing impressed me the most is that apart of it's size (we don't even have something like that at work)...
The dynamic jaw runs on 2 prismatic guides, and they are adjustable too

It says 5 on the body but my big #4 almost looks tiny beside this thing despite its 500mm length

I don't know but it's more a #6 than a #5 as all the 5's I've seen reach M30 and are not that big.
For reference my #4 is for up to M27 taps

@Johnnybravo Well spotted!

 

[Memmeddu]

Bosch 1103 aka GBM 23-2 which fun fact has the 1103 code in the data plate

That's the Bosch answer to the Fein Dsk 672-2 , they have similar specs very close, just little differences

I already have the upmentioned Fein, the problem with It is that is massive, it has an MT3 spindle a wonderful drill but it's heavy, and the collar is too big.
This Bosch has MT2 spindle, little less torque but still enough capable and it weights little more over the half of the Fein.
Now I have a very big 70 years old drill stand and my hope is that this drill will fit in it's as my Fein has a too big of a collar .

Whatever they were doing with it - your gain. If you'r selling it I could find a use for it...

Mrs Robo was driving the other day when I said "that looks like a fire bucket out for scrap" she knows me that well she was already braking

But "there's a hole in my bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza"

I'll soon have that repaired with Milliput and it can be used with a water pump display

They are a good hose gun. I stocked up on them, so I have some spares, incase needed. At that price, no reason not to.
