Morning, afternoon and evening all!
God it's been Issingdown here all day.
So boring we never did much at all.
BUT the postman brought me my drive belt for my head unit so I'll be playing with that soon.
Fecking Oakfartnitureland are saying that Paypal won't accept the payment, (prolly as it's been so long since we paid for the fecking thing) so they are asking that we send them all sorts of personal info, photocopy of passport etc etc before they'll make payment via bacs.
No chance. So I'll ring em on Monday and tell them to send a cheque or pay back via the credit card, or we'll just let the credit card company deal with them.
After all, when they took our money back in April we didn't ask them for their mother's maiden name and their inside leg measurement.
Sorry about your dottir @My Old Landy .
Hope she recovers soon and completely.

... that lathe boy strikes again.
The requirement (of a friend of mine for M10 threaded nuts with 19mm AF instead of 17mm as standard means you have to make your own.
It is just some 19mm Hex-bar and 4 or 5 hours of messing about (aka "FUN") on a mini-lathe.
While it was perishing cold in my little workshop I enjoyed making these as it is something that I have never done before.
Sequence was:

While it was perishing cold in my little workshop I enjoyed making these as it is something that I have never done before.
Sequence was:
- Swap out the 4-jaw chuck for the 3-jaw chuck.
- Cut Hex bar into 4 smaller manageable lengths.
- Progressively drill each piece 4mm, then 6mm, then 8.5mm.
- Start an M10 thread in each piece and finish by hand with a tap-wrench (too grunty for a little mini-lathe to do).
- Cut the tapped sections into 2 or 3 pieces that are just over the size (height) of standard M12 nuts with an angle-grinder (mini-lathes do not like parting-off operations).
- Mount each piece int othe chuck and face off and chamfer each end and chamfer the threaded holes.

You will be buying a bigger shed and lathe soon

Morning all, I am on my own this weekend. My middle daughter got knocked over on a Zebra crossing on Thursday. She is not seriously hurt thankfully but the Mrs is going down to see her while I stay and look after the dog.
I am going to be servicing the 90 and replacing the water pump that threw its bearing before Christmas
Have a great weekend everyone!
Mega claim my mate got 50k for getting a astra wiper blade imprinted on his ugly mush.
I hope she's ok.

Wet, so what's new.
I have to move the 'rubbish' out of the car today 'cos it's an early start tomorrow (6am) to take the car for its service.
Enjoy your Sunday, folks.
