I admit, I have a workshop tool addiction :-)

Spent the morning moving stuff out so that the drill has a permanent home ,,knocked a bench up to stand it on View attachment 441102 supprising what can be made out of scrap timber

Scrap timber? That looks too good to be described as scrap to me.

 

[Lincs Lass]

Reclamed 65mm thick scaffold battons ,,the lighter coloured stuff was salvaged a few months back from our new Co-op ,,builders left it behind

So what's on everyone's list to santa this year?
Hopefully I've got a hitachi impact gun coming to go with last years hitachi drill.

Fancy a new set of ratchet spanners. Got a 15yr old set of facom. The 17 and 19 occasionally lock up. The 10 is lost but 13 is fine. Suppose I could just buy 10,17,19.

Also fancy a new big mig. Seen a couple of 800A at sensible money on eBay locally. A murex and a Lincoln.
Might have to be a January sales purchase

They do look good ,,why not get the 3/4 model and use a reducer ,,covered for both sizes then

Glad you said that, I had thought that when I last eyed them up, I'd forgotten about that idea , I've got the smaller more compact 1/2 gun already, so getting the 3/4 would make sense I think.

Folkestone fixings are the cheapest Ive seen for the 3/4

Yes I've used them in the past, also use Toolstop. Will call our local place Monday, they can have some good offers on if you catch them in the right mood

Would really like a plasma cutter.
Nothing too big, if I could cut 12mm plate that would do. Oxy/Propane for heavier stuff.

Might buy it for my birthday present for myself.
Birthday presents to myself in the past, Milwaukee grinder last year, Mig welder before that, pillar drill.

@fermerboy click ( not until christmas day )

 

[holwellcourtfarm]

Cash is quite tight so I won't get away with any big purchase this year. I've just bought a spare auto welding helmet, replacement gauntlets and a welding jacket (didn't know they existed before) and have 2 switched magnet welding clamps on order. More stocking fillers than big items really.

'I wish me a Merry Christmas....'

Not a heavy duty cycle but won't lose money. Already had an offer of profit on it.
Single phase always find a home for ££££££

For me it would be a mag drill and full set of broaches....................and maybe a power hack saw............but as per previous they are too heavy for his sleigh............

How many fences?

 

[fiat 9090]

How many fences?

I don't know but it would probably get filled up and we would still be working outside the door again

Just you counted and remembered the size of the shed but had no idea how many fences.

Here is the biggest shed I was ever in and we extended it to 14.5 acres.........................

Sounds like the ideal workshop




As a kid, when we were in Kings Cross Station dad always used to say "this would make an ideal bale shed"
