They’re a busy old bunch it seems - google the phone number and there’s a skip hire company, a turf supplier, aggregate supplier and wholesale hand washing supplier, amongst others. Ooh, and logs too!

I had the desire to purchase a 24mm ratchet/open end spanner the other day and ordered a shiny new Britool model off Amazone. It arrived a couple of days later thus...

.I had an sd card the other week in one of their cardboard A4 sized padded envelopes, then there was the small Stanley blade dispenser that came in an A3 sized padded envelope.

How is the refurbishment of the machine tools coming along now?
It’s on hold for a while. Packed up workshop and fecked off to Iceland last autumn. Back home since June to sort stuff out, but back up for a while soon.
Sold some farm stuff, so investing in metalwork kit.

Don't laugh but I bought a Draper 115mm grinder to loan out. It has soft start and no-volt for £22. Trouble is that the handle is warm when I pick it up! As upsetting as a warm toilet seat? Also, I have developed the bad habit for blade changing with my left hand, finger on the lock, nut key engaged then rap it on the bench edge.
