The way I brew my tea, it will remove your teeth.

But that will be ok.
I have coffee.

Ok I will stick with water

This is true. In fact lots of different wondrous things, and all on the same day. I didn't need to eat again for days!

Mate when you trundling over again?

It’s been ages

Also acquired was this societe (SIP) genevoise rotary table. Couldn't pick it to put in the car. So up yard for now. I was raining heavy so couldn't get fresh pictures. View attachment 195942 View attachment 195943 View attachment 195944 View attachment 195945

I wish I knew! Life is just so...full of life at the moment! I'd love to come and play sometime though. You should drop in on my toyshop too if you're passing!

Not saying anything lol

 

[Kayos]

Do you like Indian food?

Yes, I dont have large machinery to trade for it though.

I had enough proper stuff that I cant have takeaways any more and I'm very very fussy with restaurants. Bonus being the good ones know when you genuinely appreciate authentic food

[pcwizme]

No photo as I haven't had a chance get one with out being soaked, but yesterday I acquired a roof rack for the landy (I transfered my old on on to my newer defender) and a nato tow hitch, the tow hitch is a prelude to the final item of the collection (that will be collected in a few weeks) a sanky wide body trailer. Cost? Nowt!

 

[dobbslc]

I received some nice plumbing kit!

This manifold and another the same for the opposite side is going to be for the downstairs heating in the house when I get round to fitting it all!
It's getting cold now so I have to pull my finger out!

You mean you didn't get one for the workshop too.

Underfloor heating or European style plumbing?

 

[dobbslc]

European style plumbing? I'm Assuming that's what I'm doing. Wall hung radiators run with soft copper coil under the wooden floors, no joints to fail. Yes expensive but so is ripping up solid oak flooring if a soldered joint springs a leak! Also we are out in the woods so do get mice etc and I didn't want to risk using plastic pipe as they do eat it! and of course all those push fit joints!!!

Well I'm thinking of running a pair of pipes out to the workshop if it ever gets built! The exisiting garage is not insulated so not worth heating.

Yeah everything run to a manifold is european, they use a lot of mlcp but with it being "odd" sizes it isn't popular in the uk, it really should be as it's great

Something like me that I'm working open air until I will have a workshop

 

[slim_boy_fat]

I've got one of these. https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/clarke-cew1000-electric-impact-wrench/

420nm apparently!

I think its a load of rubbish. Wouldn't take the wheel nuts off my old Ford Focus. I understand that wheel nuts are a funny thing and they can corrode onto to the threads but this was mains powered. Now I've had the use of an impact wrench I found I don't like them. It's the lack of mechanical sympathy employed. I would use them on old exhaust bolts that are getting binned but not on anything that remains on the car.

It's going back! I only got it to try making switching over to winter alloys easier on myself.

 

[Memmeddu]

Highest Nm on an impact wrench usually is only on reverse
