Latest Acquisitions (2021)

Then I would have find a place for a big enough block of wood, and if you’ve seen my pictures of what my work area looks like, that’s going to be unlikely :smiling3:

Drill a hole in the bench then…you can’t fill up the space, the detritus will fall through :tongue-out3:

Funny about tools isn’t it….I’ve got one of those vices (had it for at least ten years) and have probably used it about five times John…..I just find my small record vice clamped to the bench more useful….it probably isn’t, that’s just the one I’m used to using :thinking: The hand vice and pin vices I have do get used a huge amount though…

Looking at John's vice Tim , it appears to be exactly like mine, so could use that for certain jobs.

....Not to mention all the golf tees and blue tack!! :thumb2: :tongue-out3::tongue-out2::tongue-out:

I upgraded them a while back Rick…they are now Golf Tees and magnets……the figures are based on steel coins so it seemed the logical way forward. It’s surprising how much time it saves not having to scrape blue tack off the base…

Right as the excitement over my tool holder seems to have abated I'll show you todays delivery. It's good poor postman has a strong torch I spotted a strange light out the draw bridge fumbling in his bag only to give the postal dept a packet.



Now it says glues, but a thinned filler will also work well. Hopefully this will cause more replies either of laughter and abuse or tips.
I thank you.

I hate to think how much they cost you Guest . We get boxes of them by the hundreds for injecting piglets lol

[Tim Marlow]

I thought we did that conversation ages ago John….basically that’s a reboxed leur lock syringe with a variety of needles….really cheap in the right places…..Hope they weren’t too much…..

Oh have we, must have been sometime ago Tim, they were £7.95 including postage. Suppose you win some lose some. But considering what I pay (still ) for building material I don't think I do too badly:smiling3:

Just now there was another ring at the drawbridge, our local Hermes driver, a great chap ,works his socks off and a really nice guy.

This time its the filler. So tomorrow will be a fun day.

John,
you may find it useful, but I found the nozzle hopeless - I either apply it with with a customised cut down lolly stick, or my finger!

[Tim Marlow]

Decent putty though Dave……..

Depends what size gauge you are using

Alan,
I use 31 gauge needles twice a day - to inject myself with insulin!!
Dave

[AlanG]

31 gauge? That's really thin Dave.

If you were doing injecting yourself twice a day you wouldn’t want to use one of those harpoons of yours Alan :loudly-crying:
