Lost and Found
« on: June 30, 2018, 03:50:13 pm »
I'm making a part for my strimmer. I spent ages, a couple of days ago, looking for my set of transfer punches which would have made that part of the jobla  lot easier. Naturally I started looking in my 'measuring bits' drawer before searching the whole shed. Then I remembered that I'd been meaning to buy a set.
Today I spent ages looking for my angle gauge set. I know I've got one of those 'cos I've used it quite a lot. I always keep it in the cutter and boring head drawer. Not there!. The good news is that when i searched my measuring stuff drawer I found a large box set of unopened and clearly labelled transfer punches.

You have a boring head drawer???

Is that like "Boring: See Civil Engineers"?

Who needs drawers?  :innocent:

Knock yoirelves out  :roflanim:
I have separate cupboards for lubes, another for sticky stuff, yet another for aerosols and colours. I keep my bastards in with finer files.... I keep my diamonds in there too with any laps.I can skim, drill, ream, bore and face off, groove and slit.There's ties, anchors, tapes and hold downs and an array of jigs...
Now go for it.. :innocent:
