Morning all, Dry and cold here. Beech hedge reduction. One cutting, two dragging, with me on chipper. If it goes as fast as I hope maybe a laburnum take down on the way home.

Having a desk day to go back through some enquiries etc. Shake few bushes to see what falls out and a2ay for a couple of days next week so planning that too. Sounds still out.... Be good and return home safe! Mirror, Culls.

Morning all 🙂

Personally for thread repair in general I see a Helicoil as the proper engineering solution for stripped threads, and some of the top engine builders use them as standard in alloy cases in new engines. But I agree that with a short reach sparkplug with only 4 or 5 threads a Timesert is probably a better solution for most folk that don't have the correct tooling or experience. Without trying to blow my own trumpet over my working life I repaired thousands of damaged threads and I can say that I detested finding Timeserts in casing threads of an engine that I was repairing for every possible reason.

Yeah, aged 14 I got out blind bearings in motorcycles by sticking the case in my mum's oven at full whack until they just fell out... but as you say , sometimes the case needed thumped on a plank 👍

Ford just discovered thousands of old car parts in one of their plants,, they decided rather than scrap them, they would build a whole new car,, It's called the Ford Pubic,,, apparently it's made of old corsairs.

I thought that. Either he's got a half pallet of gold bricks on already or flat airbags.

I have no idea what the carrying capacity might be but with HSE and LOLER requiring scaffolding for the simplest of tasks, which previously just required a ladder, there are plenty of opportunities for a small amount of scaffolding.

There's probably a reason that he's got hundreds of vacancies. He's screwed a lot of people to make his billions. Have a look at the safety record of Tesla vehicles and their manufacturing plants if you get a minute. If he stuck to making and selling stuff he wouldn't be so bad; it's the fact that he now dabbles heavily in politics as well that's the concern. His, and similar figures, influence is now massive. And not just in the US either. I sense we won't ever agree on the bloke, so let's leave it there, in a civil fashion! Go on then, what do you suggest is driving political division? I'd say the media, traditional and social. Wealth inequality. Smart phones. The Internet. Folk conflating opinion with fact. Narcissistic politicians. Tech Bros. Random people on forums always seeking to stoke division rather than cultivate common ground. And the new kid on the block, AI. In no particular order.

they won't get much of a load of scaffold on there before been overweight
