My car was stolen then left in the multi storey car park opposite the law courts. I got a parking ticket for overstay.You know it’s a tourist when your bike gets nicked and the plod recover it from the heather sans mirrors

Keep the muck oot. since its crimble, I'll swap you some 30mm for your 200mm.I had thought of that but didn't have any Acetal to make them with except some 200mm dia bits and it would break my heart to machine that down to 30mm dia
Having said that I kind of like the look now, maybe in a few weeks I wont, who knows
I think I will pass on that dealKeep the muck oot. since its crimble, I'll swap you some 30mm for your 200mm.

Just because we know the right side of a shilling.....
Are they the type you just ram a large screwdriver down the side and then turn when you have lost the key?I have DoubleTake mirrors on my bike and they come with wing nuts which are not the most secure as anyone could easily unscrew and nick them, we get a lot of tourists up this way

I ordered some pin-lock ones from Amazon and before I bought it said they would be delivered today but as soon as I bought they said they would let me know the expected delivery by email. I still hadn't got an email last night so I cancelled them and drew some up in Fusion, I then machined and anodised them today, didn't need to make two keys but thought I might as well as they didn't take long to machine.

Pic of them on the bike. The outer shells just spin so you can't undo by grabbing that and turning.

Won't work with these ones but once you try that a pair of mole grips could be used.Are they the type you just ram a large screwdriver down the side and then turn when you have lost the key?
I also just made this tool. It featured a tapered thread (of no particular pitch or threadform). Happens to be left-hand too but that's not significant. I'll let you guess what it's used for. It has a 22mm hole though the middle

Not cheap those broaches..Since the required broach bushing got delivered today, and I needed a distraction, I put some slots in the pulleys -

Just need to find some suitable grubscrews now, and make some more holes.
Fitted the collet chuck to the Cnc lathe.
They have their uses.Collet chucks are worth their weight in gold, aren't they. So much better to work with than a standard chuck.
I wouldn't go that far, chucks are heavy and gold is expensive, I think I'd rather have the cash.Collet chucks are worth their weight in gold, aren't they
Or another small modellers CNC lathe.I wouldn't go that far, chucks are heavy and gold is expensive, I think I'd rather have the cash.
