    Have talked to a local gunsmith and he's going to look at the gear for me and see what can be done. Probably get him to cut the acme threads on the screw brass nuts as well since they are pretty worn...

    Surprisingly we get on well enough that the odd words in the intercom are not a worry “let’s stop for a drink here” “I need to fuel up at the next town” “hell did you see the bunch of rabbits back...

    I'm pretty far out of my depth, but aren't most laptop supplies voltage regulated not current regulated? I agree that the LED's like stable current, though these light strips seem pretty tough,...

    I had a broken tooth on my Grayson lathe's 25-teeth screw cutting change gear. I replaced it with a stick weld blob filed down. Tedious filing... and the weld proved tougher to file than the...

    Poor choice of words in my part - should have said 'near'. Definitely a fan of relief grooves. Also got to bear in mind that there's no spindle brake in these lathes and most also have imperial...

    If you want to have petrol hanging around for an emergency such as a week without power, 20-40 L should do you. Store in a STEEL container: either those old square ones kero came in or a steel jerry...
