Couldn't agree more the only thing my cross vice does is make the drill table so heavy I can hardly lift it (old Mending floor standing drill)

Lionel

I believe there is now a queue for them. Perhaps Santa

But can you fit it into your toolbox?

Many thanks gents. I have emailed

Just having a look through ME4564 (pocketmags) and noticed that the Micro-Light article ends very abruptly, on further investigation I notice that page 89 is missing. is there a reason for this

Lionel

The main reason they don't have the carrying capacity is that they are soooooooo heavy anyway. Brother had an Autocruise tracker on a Fiat Doublo and was overloaded if it had 3 passengers unladen weight was 150 kg below max

Perhaps someone could write a full constructional article for mew (with drawings etc) I for one would be very interested

Lionel

I post very little on this site butte wisdom I have gained is just staggering although in my mind I will probably always remain a beginner. I find it very sad when a fellow 'colleague' stops posting for whatever reason. Michael G if you are still following please reconsider your decision.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all contributors for their willingness in share their knowledge and experience.

Had an old Dyson DC01 for years and years in the house. when it finally died I bought a DC24 absolute rubbish after about 12month of continual cleaning changed for a Miele brilliant - A Henrietta ( slightly smaller than henry) for the workshop and decorating building work in use for about 10years + and it wasn't new still going strong , Also have a spare Charles when it does finally die. You can't beat the Numatic

Or Henrietta

I work with digital photo printers (17,00 prints per hour) and we are changing the side guides quite often as the paper cuts through them - it's really abrasive

We ordered a metal bender at work after 6 months of being told it would be next month we cancelled and ordered from brieley - can within the week. I had problems with spares from Chester a couple of years ago I'd be hard pressed to use them again

I couldn't agree more I've just had a knee replacement (hardly the same league I know) but nothing was too much trouble for the staff. why so called celebrities get paid so much and not the NHS staff I'll never understand. Hope you get well some Michael.

Carl I sincerely hope that you 'do bother' in future. I enjoyed the article and the way it was written giving the appropriate credit to your sources. I have now placed your article in my 'must do' folder when those hard to find 'round tuits' become available again.

I can second that - our firm purchased a heat press from a so called reputable supplier the heater was 10a 240V - this heater had a centre tap with that cable cut off about 1/4" short of the metal plug with an earth cable connected to an isolated control box - the rest of the machine became live - I condemned the machine ended it's very short life in the bin CE just stood for China Export

I've been wearing varifocals for several years now but switch to single vision close work in the workshop the varifocals always fall in the no focus distance ideal for walking driving and reading and thats about it

Of course if you ever Owen a Fiat you realise it means something else on the first trip f*!k I'm a t#*t

I just highlighted the 2 week old cut from a knee replacement still very scabby which seemed to frighten everyone away so I ate the sweets - result

We have a tanker around here with "This tank is full of political promises" the contents of the tanker should be obvious. I also saw a car sticker the other day "Jesus loves you - but everyone else thinks you're a p**tt

You're obviously forgetting the £4.00 postage or should it be £4.0s.0d John
