A set of Abingdon adjustable.

That’s a Britain’s Land Rover. It’s one of the first toy cars I ever owned, when my sister was born my parents told me the baby was magical and brought a present for me with her! Being 2, I believed it!

It came alone or with a horsebox, as mine did. I got another one in Scotland, new tooling, really nice actually. I’ll dig them both out and post a pic

 

[Wallace]

Not far off skip diving cost, £15 delivered as my trusty 20 year old tool can’t cope with newer vehicles. Love the description, wind or wind?

More exciting toys, as promised:

Quickset Knipex Cobras, slowly trying to replace all my crap pliers with Knipex, best you can get.

DeWalt drill/driver set, both three speed brushless, 5Ah battery and nice skookum metal chuck, should be leaps and bounds ahead of my Bosch green thing.
Went for DeWalt because it seemed like the best value option considering tools I'm likely to buy body-only in the future and a few members on here use them professionally and seem to like them.

Can't fault em mate.
Skill saw planer multi tool first and second fix nail guns drill and driver (cheap not worth me buying to spec) jigsaw all still going strong
Still want hammer drill 1/4 inch router grinder and extractor.

 

[Maker]

You were one of the members I was talking about.

I've got the heavy duty 1/2" impact driver on the way and I may well order a circular saw in the next month or so too. I'll keep an eye out for a second hand angle grinder and die grinder, don't need one enough to buy new but it would be nice. I can see an oscillating multi tool coming in handy over the next few months too, we'll see.

That's my oldest tool.
It's also the most abused.
It still won't die even running it for extended periods well out of it's intended usage.
A worthy buy. Couldn't go back to a corded multitool.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

Today my last site was a good one.
The lock up of a house clearance company.
Decent bloke, always makes a good coffee.

3 of his extinguishers were damaged, but I had 3 what were removed from a site, as they want new ones every 3 years.
No need for that, but site rules are site rules.
So I swopped them.

He gave me this lot.



Sparkies Screwdriver, 2 more Arbafille holders.

Plus another 1/4 whit tap.




Another Breast Drill, complete and fully working.

It looks like a Keen Drill, by the colour on the gear wheel, but what I can see of the remains of the makers name, it isn't.

Err. No. You want the best in Waterpump pliers you need to buy Stahlwille. Once you have used them,you will never use anything else....

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

I worked with a engineer who had a set.
I didn't get on with them, may be it was the job. But he didn't get on with my Mac Water pump set either.

I like them because they don’t jump from one setting to the next like most types do. Hard to explain.Its very seldom that you grab something and it slips to the next setting.

 

[Maker]

I prefer the button style adjustment but if you're into the Channel-lock type they do look secure. I've never had one slip into the next setting but to be fair I don't use them very often.

Seriously running out of toolbox space now.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

front is a crowfoot connection ( used on road compressors to connect to jackhammers and the like.) No idea on the other one.

The other is a Rose head connection to a garden watering lance.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

Or 1" hose for water...we used them for sprinklers etc

Or for me to weigh in.

I have a few on my Dry and wet Riser kit.

It's known as a ladies safety razor if IRC , for shaving armpits and lady bits

It is a "Ever Ready" Sells man razor.
The tin should be lined and with a small brush.
They used to give them out to show what the different type of razor they sold.

Just what you see.

I sat in the back sniggering right up until you said worthy buy and corded mutleytool.

 

[Kayos]

I dont like grips that you need to press a button, I can use and adjust mine one handed
