I heard a woman tell her kids ‘if you don’t work hard in school you’ll end up like him’ when I was gleefully digging out hardwood columns with a friend from a skip!

A friend and I were only talking about this the other day, I wonder how many stock car boys are kicking themselves for battering thousands of Mk2 jags to death

If they hadn't done it they wouldn't be so rare so would be worth a lot less though. Less than 20 years ago I was offered a Scimitar for free just to get it out of the way and I didn't want it. I don't see the fascination with them and I'd rather have the Capri they were based on any day.

Many thanks for the speedy delivery @angellonewolf
Posted it off before id settled the balance.
Unfortunately the handle didnt fare well. Old brittle plastic.
Gonna be mounted under a bench anyway.
Now to consider how to adjust height.
Planning an above table removable handle to wind a screw.
Hate faffing under a bench to adjust height.

could you use the hight ajuster thats there at the moment just drill through the base and have a wing nut above to pull or drop it as you move the wing nut the springs there for it to drop down

Not your fault mate. Packaging was ok. Like I said in pm. Will be under a router table anyway and can always turn some new handles from Ali if needed.

Be a bit more involved than that,will use the lug that the bolt fixes to the body to hold a bracket and captive nut.
Bolt will be captive to the base but able to rotate with a square or hex head for a removable handle to slot into from above.
Have a few screws kicking around that should do the job.

A sash cramp.
Or at least I think that's what it is. I saved it from a pile of stuff, found at the back of the in-laws' shed, that was going to the tip.
Nobody seems to know where it came from.
(sorry didn't have a coffee mug handy at the time for scale)
Needs a bit of de-rusting and a new pin and tommy bar making.
Not sure what the mounting lugs at the left-hand end are for.

The mounting lugs are for just that - mounting. You can mount a row of them, I’ve seen six working together to glue a bench top in a glue-up operation.
