  2. I drove for a small 1 owner haulage company back in the 90,s loved the job but God was he a tight fisted whatsit . Got paid monthly and 1 particular month I was away loads not stop . come payday goes into the office and he says ... Well this is the most I've ever paid any of my 6 drivers ... I thought wey hey ....got my pay packet put in my pocket and drove home . Got indoors looked at the pay packet and the get had put all my stoppy out nights money in and taxed me on it my total take home pay for the month was £518 . I left shortly after and got a much better job driving for an engineering company ... Less hours better wages better vehicles
  3. I wish I knew how to tie a hangmans knot
  4. Hospital just been on I've got take her in for a M.R.I at 4.15pm today ......
  5. All that's left to do is sharpen it on my new toy ... A scheppach tiger 2000 whetstone sharpener Quite happy with it as mentioned it's my 1st attempt . I didn't make the blank but I'm considering having a go I just need to get more info on how the harden the metal once shaped . I've seen some online supplier's that sell flat stock ready for shaping ect . So it looks like I'm going to be a YouTube addict for a while
  6. Thanks. It's not up to the standard of a lot on here but it's the 1st one I've attempted . The blade is 01 tool steel
  7. And the icing on the cake as the saying goes ..... We've just got home from hospital (4 hrs) they think she's had a mini stroke (TIA) So she's been referred to the stroke team and we're waiting for a phone call from them to arrange seeing her
  8. It's had 3 coats of red root oil And 1 coat of hardener I'll give it a second coat tomorrow and see how it ends up ?
  9. Yep most definitely . 3-4 hours only seamed like a hour until the Mrs said I think it's time you put that down and done our food you've been on nearly 4 hours .
  10. As it is now it looks completely different in the 2 pics one taken with flash 1 without
  11. Update ., I've hunted out the thread in which forum member peter-peter sent me the wood and it's african bubinga . Or do I use a wax
  12. Can anyone of you nice chaps shine a light on how to "finish" the handle ? I've got it shaped and sanded from 120 grit through 240grit to 600 then 1200 1500 2000 finish with 2500 . So next do I put it on buffer wheel or use an oil . If oil what would be best .. Unfortunately I have no idea what the wood Is .
  13. It's like watching the repair shop !!!! Excellent mate keep em coming you have a true talent
  14. I agree with ditchie that groove looks to be rusted and too shallow and possibly the circlip has weakened . I'd try to clean it out and deepen it and put a new circlip in and make sure it's seated tightly. Maybe a drop of stud lock as well ?
  15. Those people (antis) that take a disgusting stance to a tragedy are proof of what happens when your brother and sister are your parents!!!. Undoubtedly they have hair that hasn't been washed or cut for years and wearing woolly jumpers that are too big for them and full of holes living in a clapped out vehicle... As the Muppets who were trying to drum up support in our area a few years back .
  16. Have a look at SGS engineering I just replaced my M18 impact driver at an amazing price https://www.sgs-engineering.com/search/?q=M18+battery
  17. Back home now was a 2 night break . We enjoyed the time away as it was the 1st time away in 3yrs as the Mrs had to shield during lock down and it took some persuading to get her to go as I believe it has had a mental effect on her confidence . That aside I have to say sedgebrook hall was good . It needs a little bit of TLC but bearing in mind the time that the hospitality industry has been through of late they have done ok . The grounds were very well kept the room was clean but could have benefited a redecorating but that's my opinion ... Food was excellent staff were very helpful/pleasant . Would I travel the 4 hours to go back ?? Hell yes in a blink of an eye!!! In fact I'm in the process of convincing her . Next time I'm seriously thinking of loading my fishing stuff as I passed a couple of fisheries not far from the hotel and she quite likes sitting watching while I fish
