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

[steviec_lj]

Today, I took a trip over to see @chriscase, and certainly came away with a lot more than I bargained for, I wasn’t allowed to hand over any monies.

A random air line


3no expanding readers


The first set of router bits


A set of Silverline T Handle Allen keys


A dreamer type attachment


Bearing/Studlock


A second set of router bits


Torque Wrench for @Tinbasherdan


Turnscrew for @Screwdriver


A random chainsaw in a case, that hasn’t run for a few years

 

[steviec_lj]

To continue from the above...

An hydraulic foot pedal powered crimper


A Hilti DX450 in case


And finally, a pack of 5 MB25 Shrouds


I think I need to stop collecting for a week or two while I find homes for al of this

 

[eLuSiVeMiTe]

Nice haul. Feel free to send the Hilti my way.

A vintage petrol can, to be used for, err, petrol?

Originally designed to fit inside a spare wheel, but later pressed into service as a 2-stroke mix container for someone's Stihl chainsaw at 25:1 by the looks of it?

Yes, shall be attempting to remove the yellow paint without damaging it further hopefully. Then a liberal coat of wax

Yesterday from the shop of “swings and round abouts”. A while back I resurfaced a distant mates front discs (I needed something to practice on being first time grinding) they came out really good I didn't charge him as I gained experience grinding. Yesterday morning the same guy came by the workshop and my first thought was oh no its Saturday, my time go away I don't want to be disturbed. Any way to cut a long story short, after chatting for about an hour and a half and several coffees he said, he’s been clearing his dads shed out, “his dads passed away” and there are a few things I may be able to use, we get the stuff in the shop, now im feeling pretty bad for thinking go away its Saturday. He would take nothing for the stuff although I did manage to get him to take something for the fuel.

Any way I am so privileged to have my dad and mum still with me. Ive felt pretty guilty all weekend.

Thats it got it off my chest. My weekend changed as I did have couple projects to do but ended up cleaning some of the stuff the guy dropped off.



Here some pics I gotta figure out what chesterman thing does and if I need it, the long calipers might be useful vices are always handy, a handy 1 gallon jug and old weed sprayer thingy and an old union hand drill (ornament) . Its been a good weekend although I still feel a bit guilty for my thoughts.


I dont think this is complete but will do some reasearch




longest one ive seen

Ive given this a bit of a clean






This has cleaned up well



A handy jug

Chesterman looks like a height gauge and the long calipers look very nice and are useful.

Edit.
Yup.

Don't feel bad mate.
When I go I'd rather my tools were used by someone who would get enjoyment from them.

Today got a spare wheel to make my beetle mobile again so it could be moved around

Cheers mate I will by the look of the stuff get plenty enjoyment from them. The Chesterman gauge turns out is 24 inches and 600mm metric and the long verniers are 25inches from a company called Huddersfield Gauges LTD Ive never heard of this make, more research though

[Ruffian]

Recieved a big box full of old tools which mate was going to chuck on the scrap pile.

Lots maybe junk but there is probably a diamond in the rough.
Just need to find an hour to go through it now.

 

[mpats]

his little lot for me.

And we picked this up for the Mrs. the other day. Unfortunately she wrote off the Rav4 recently so needed a replacement little 4x4 for the winter. This came up at a reasonable price and they are meant to be very capable little things.

Well done sir!
PHD next? Dr Parmster

 

[jordhandson]

Well done it sounds high end. Is it for a specific subject or does it cover lots. Father keeps telling me to get on and study another subject to fall back on while I am still at home and before I get in the marriage and mortgage trap. I have been looking into something arout I.T.



Congrats
