  1. I assume then from reading the above, that mine is fine, yes it's over 8 inches but has no spikes or holes in the actual blade.. what about that small serrated edge?
  2. I believe this law comes into force next week, what actually defines a machete?
  3. Good evening all... Finally killed my old set of bottoms, so would like some recommendations on some breathable waterproof bottoms that are hard wearing to use when out beating? Cheers roadkill
  4. Good evening pal, Would be really interested in a place for next year and happy to be part of the work parties, if you want a chat happy to send you my number. All the best Jamie
  5. I think you are right looking at it, I will just try and get it Sharpe again 😉 Great information, so when you say the 600 and 1000 grit, are these the whetstone on ebay? I will give this a go to protect it for longer
  6. This knife use to belong to my granddad, it was used each Sunday to calve the roast joint and brings back some happy memories of spending time with him and the family around the table usually enjoying a meal where most of it had come from his garden.. After he passed away I had the knife to use at home with my family... However as you can see its looking sorry and is now quite blunt, to be honest looking at the knife I'm not even sure it's a carving knife.... Could someone advise on what I would need to get the metal looking shiny, restoring some colour back into the handle and also what I would need to sharpen it? Also any recommended you tube vids on the correct sharpening technique? I looked on you tube but there is so many different ways and with different tools.. Cheers Roadkill
  7. Cheers both, any recommendations on a mig unit? Just looked on ebay and it's like a mine field
  8. Quick update, she's 90% done and looking like new again, hopefully she will be on the road and attending local shows by the end of this month. I would like to take some credit for the rebuild but I cannot, life changed and I ended up in a new role at work which meant spending 75% of the year in Europe away from the family and bike. I found a local ducati company in Coventry who have done the restoration rebuild.. I'm sure the bikers will love these pics
  9. 25 years ago I did my apprenticeship in welding and fabrication, I continued this trade for a few years until I moved into aviation and have been there ever since... I would like to start playing around and making a few different projects.. I would like to make things like the picture attached and wonder what kind of welding unit would be better... in my days it was all gas, mig and stick welding. I now see that tig is quite popular so really unsure what unit to purchase... Cheers Jamie
  10. My wife cleans up before the cleaner comes, I just don't get it!
  11. Rip Harnser, a top guy with some top posts
  12. Gone fishing tonight on bbc2, always makes me smile
  13. I was the same, had the AZ for jab 1 and 2 no issues. Then the booster was the moderna and my arm was that painful I lost use of it for two days, couldn't even lie on it in bed as it was that painful
