    Forget Veganuary, it’s time to eat meat! Support World Carnivore Month

    This won’t have anywhere near the publicity of this current vegan movement and propaganda. But there are plenty of people around the world adopting a Carnivore lifestyle, they just don’t shout as loud as the vegans. https://meatrx.com/ Dr Shawn Baker is a big name in the carnivore movement...

    Anyone fabricating with Hardox?

    Just mulling an idea over, wondering if anyone has experience of using Hardox or similar? I realise Hardox is just a name. Not sure if it’s only available in sheet form, or if RHS for instance, is available in that grade of steel? Other general questions, can it be drilled? Anything special...

    Not back until the 7th.....

    I can’t imagine there are many of us who are not back at work until Monday. I know plenty of schools won’t be back until next week, but how many businesses can afford not to be back until the 7th of January? I’d love an extended Christmas break, but the reality is there’s too much to do, like...

    as above, I have an old welder I’d like to get going and use, if I can’t then there’s no point in it taking up space any longer! We’ve dragged it out and dusted it off this afternoon, I knew it was 415V, but it’s wired with up with what looks like a length of 6mm single phase cable, on the...

    Unusual connector ID?

    Wondering if anyone has come across these connectors before? They are on a Snowex salt spreader controls. I will admit that I’ve not had a google yet, but with no brand name to go on, as I can’t see any ID on them, thought I’d ask here first, see if anyone has an idea about them?

    Shovelhands in the workshop, I did it my way........

    I'm often tinkering in the workshop, it's not a full time thing, but I can get quite 'involved' at times! My current project has made me think, that it would be nice to start a thread, as some things are long term projects, I may go off for weeks or months before getting back to something, so...

    JCB AgriPro DuelTech Variable transmission, anyone using one?

    Just wondering if anyone has got a Telehandler fitted with the DuelTech Variable transmission? If so how's it going? It sounds good to me, our JCB fitter says it's very good, I trust him, but he is understandably a bit biased, I'd be interested to hear from any end users. Possibly looking to...
