Oil cooler radiator had a pin pr*ck hole. Needed to finish spraying so covered the hole with a bit of pipe draining the oil to a used T shirt so it didn’t coat the other radiators with oil.

I'm more normal than I thought.
We 'inherited' a big box of fine tec screws 25 years ago. I mean 10kg plus big. I'm still using them as if they were made of the gold that they are coloured with.
Sorry to say your not more normal than you thought,your just mixing with the rest of us who are just not normal like you. It's a big club we all belong to. And who wants to be normal anyway

Today's bodge.
Metal strap box from scrapyard 'n' a few years ago.
2 pieces of flat bar from a bed headboard. Offcuts of ubiquitous 40mm box then 2 more pieces of 40x8mm flat.

Box only hooked onto the trailer headboard as it might be in the way for tight turns or long loads.
Paint might happen.
Our low loader had the same setup welded on the front, had to remove it as it was slicing 650 tyres, maybe sitting lower than that though.
