Showing work things ain't fair man
Breaker bar, vice grips and ugga dugga, looks like you've had a t**t of a job🤣🤣View attachment 1640472
Got the breaker bar for Xmas and it so nice to wag about. So nice in fact that I feel bad for chucking it at the floor like all the other tools I own 😬
the jack will probably never leave the garage, and I'll mostly use it for lifting my 911 which lifts all one side up from one jacking point (so a fair bit of weight).Not sure what you are lifting with the jack - but if you can get one of the aluminum race ones assuming you aren't trying to lift big cars all at once. The ali ones are so much better to chuck in a boot, on a shelf, store etc.
Slight issue is that you really don't want to skimp out on the jack. Perhaps ask for a nicer light (cough, red one) and then buy a nice jack yourself.
Father’s Day is apparently coming up and I need to suggest an inspection lamp and a low entry jack. Ones that aren’t too expensive.
Say £25 for lamp and god knows how much for the jack.
Anyone got any recommendations, thank you please.
I'm not sure why, but it looks different to my 200 piece set!Decided to treat myself to a new 200 piece set from Halfords. My previous set has lasted me approx 15 years but I've retired it as spares.

Are the 10mm bits now plated? Mine are all rusty which is very disappointing
Wrong colour
Wrong colour
Then they alllllllll the wrong colourWell seeing as it’s the same colour as all my other power tools and the batteries are the same…

Get the red ones or I'll phone your wife and tell her how much that you've really spent on them🤣🤣Maybe so. But they’re a huge improvement over my orange black and deckers that they’ve replaced 😂

Yeah not bad but bet you told the wife it was only £64.99🤔The circular saw i bought today was only £99 which I thought was a bargain.

Halfords advance one is not bad at all. Might be worth a look, and decent warrantyAnyone have a low profile long reach jack they can recommend?
Is that the SIP 5 ton one? That would be perfect but a bit over my budget unfortunately. I want one to jack up an e90 and dont want to have to faff about with blocks under the wheels and such.Halfords advance one is not bad at all. Might be worth a look, and decent warranty
This one. Not sure if its what you need though, quite decent quality.Is that the SIP 5 ton one? That would be perfect but a bit over my budget unfortunately. I want one to jack up an e90 and dont want to have to faff about with blocks under the wheels and such.
The nice man who stole my catalyst a few years back had one of these, seems to do a really quick and neat job. I'm sure I heard him say it reviewed as 5 stars.
Seeing as we have a wide range of clever people here I thought I’d ask for help. I have some threaded bar that is M8 that I need to quickly cut down. They’re 130mm and need to be 105mm so I need to chop 25mm off of the end.
Ideally I need to be able to achieve one cut in 4-5 seconds max to make it worth it.
Any suggestions.
Thought I’d solved it with a Milwaukee thread cutter but apparently the dies run out after 1000 cuts and need replacing. I’m just trying to save the thread going into scrap really!
Yeah I'd be outsourcing that 10000%The mitre saw I tried and it struggles to hold it still. Even tried it with a big cutting blade in it like an angle grinder one.
I’m thinking of trying to make a tool to go on a mechanical press to literally shear the end off.
There’s 190000 of them to cut 🫣
