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

[Robotstar5]

Another prescription for steroids and anti-biotics. I went into the walk in centre this morning, wheezing and coughing and short of breath, 8 hours later come out of hospital with pneumonia and drugs.

They let you out?, I was stuck in hospital for a week when I went to A&E with pneumonia.

Went to a local yard sale on this morning.
It has been the first time for me.
I've got an engine driven welder for 30 euro, 30 euro...
Less than 25£
Picture later but
It's either a MO.SA MS170 or MSG170 compact
From the same guy I've got a Morse taper hand held drill for 10 euro
He proposed me an AEG drill Morse taper 3 but it was severely damaged plus he said he tested it, it spins and hammers very well , this statement equals he didn't tested it because it's a slow speed drill meant to be installed on a magnetic base so no hammer function.

I've been kept in for previous bouts of it, the last time was combined with sepsis but I think this time wasn't so serious and they were desperate for beds, 2 of the 8 hours at hospital was spent sitting in the back of the ambulance chatting with the paramedics.

 

[Memmeddu]

As promised, here's it

It's a MOSA MS170-N
So no auxiliary 220V DC output

I've tried to start it but, apparently it doesn't sparks

I've had a look through the exhaust port and the cylinder looks pretty good I'll give it a little hone just to remove few little scratches.
Piston is little blackened so I think piston rings need to be replaced

Unfortunately I've lend my GenSet engine driven welder and it doesn't start anymore.
Tomorrow after work I'll take it back home and have a look at it.
Now this little MOSA if I manage to get it running would be my backup to get a job done.
Or at least it would be till I fix my GenSet.
Plan is to restore it (thread on here and YouTube video obviously) and sell it for a profit.
Same faith for my Pramac 4.5kW generator because I'm aiming to buy this one

GenSet MPM 8-315
2 cylinder diesel engine (most likely Lombardini or Kohler)
8kW 400V
6kW 230V
315A
Electric starter
No electronics
Obviously expensive and out of budget

@Memmeddu them little 2 stroke mossas are loud but great little machines

I know that in fact I'm kinda thinking about keeping it but in reality why would I need it?
Fast little jobs because it's extremely portable because it's only 20kgs but it lacks the auxiliary power output and I would have to take the Pramac Genny with me anyways
So at this point it would be a nonsense...
My GenSet is heavier and bigger despite they have both 170A but it does 4.5kW 400V and 3kW 230V too .
If it was the 220V output model I would have seriously consider to keep it but without that it has to go

Today I treated myself to a 10 inch extension

It’s for those tight awkward places you need to weld. Bends in all directions, simply screws into the end of your mig torch.

I walked past a skip this morning. There's a large pallet truck lying on its side in the bottom. I wish I had the energy and interest to dig it out

Too many other projects to worry about.

If only you had a chain hoist!

Just go back to the pub, and offer a free round to anyone prepared to help you get it out of the skip. Job done!!

Another auction I couldn't resist. I know, I'm a spineless old git.
But,but,but......I really really needed these.

A Milwaukee 8.0 Ah Forge battery

Well it was my birthday yesterday and I was trying to make up my mind on High Output or Forge so took the gamble. Should keep my power hungry saws happy.

A very deep sense of relief at knowing that an irreplaceable crankshaft has been disgorged by Royal Mail to a place of safety.
Much ire, distress, pain, and litigation has been avoided.....

 

[Mark 5]

6 x brand new genuine 5Ah Makita Batteries, £22,00 each.

 

[Kram]

Do they have any more?

 

[Seadog]

This appeared in my garden.

A little light repair work for a friend.
It won't start. It uses the ubiquitous Honda GX270 engine, so shouldn't be too taxing ( )
