quick fixes, bodges and creations

[Two Tone]

im a stockman , "reusable serrated ledger plate" so i dont understand a word of this !

however i should of added both major components , came out a skip

It’s the riveted on bit that the knife would cut against.
Even though you are a stockman, if you’d taken it off, you might have sold that bit on eBay for as much as 10p!

The fact that Combine manufacturers haven’t used that type of finger for at least 40 years, might have even made it an antique!

Whoever put it in the skip, is obviously not a bodger.

 

[Two Tone]

can you have a double bodge, where a perfectly normal bodge also has an ineffective binder twine cutting aspect?

Ah, hadn’t thought of that one.
Well done.
Very clever bodge.
I take my comments back @Hesstondriver. You’re a genius!

We built a drill.

Nothing is safe from a true bodger!
This is festos over complicated way of connecting to a air valve block.
The board was corroded at a via and there was no elegant way to sort it

I thought sitting on the floor would be more comfortable then on a block.

It's damned uncomfortable being right down on the floor, you don't realise how low the seat goes. Using the pedals is close on impossible let alone the steering wheel being at shoulder height.
I spent a couple of days like that with the block and bit wasn't too bad, better now I've managed to somehow bodge the control lever into not letting the air out and dropping the seat.

I use one of those big blue bog rolls to tuck under the edge of the seat..... bonus is the blue confetti flying around the cab after a bouncy job.

There’s a bit more give in this

Who else knew the flexi pipe off oil jug is same size and screws into the filler/drain plug on front hubs, making a handy funnel

Is it not easier and quicker using filler plug on inside of hub on a puma!?

Never even knew that was there but it looks even more awkward to get oil into anyway

if you get the ones with thread on the end ,it screws in the hole to stop the oil dripping!

I fill gearboxes etc with an empty fire extinguisher. Half fill with oil, pressurise with air. Pull trigger.


Just musing in the early hours about the old micro applicators for spot spraying weeds.
Floor mops with squirty bottle on shaft and are cheap. We've one with broken head that is going to live again tomorrow for grazon 90 on docks. Lightweight and easier than a hand squirty bottle.
