  1. You might might want to re tension the wires on your fence Leslie….. they appear to be sagging more and more of late! [emoji849][emoji849]
  2. Pictures of progress please! [emoji16][emoji106]
  3. He’ll be fine, if ya remember he was wearing his flea market jump suit!
  4. Anything mainstream, particularly the news! Rather watch CBeebies!
  5. So….. read the last 15 or so related and debated posts and think its probably not achievable to sustain a daily healthy diet for 30p a meal. Not to say a 30p meal isn’t achievable as pointed out above, but it will be shite. I’ve just cooked off some peas and sweetcorn, made a tuna and crab mayo mix and introduced the lot to a medium sized bowl. Two tins of lidl’s finest tuna, a tin of kingfisher white crab meat, handsome dollop of full fat hellmans mayo, a dash of Asda’s full fat salad creme and mixed in with peas and sweetcorn. This will be used on two teacakes for tomorrow with some salad leaves, cherry tomatos and slices of cucumber. Quantity wise of what i’ve just mixed up i’ll get three days out of it, so…. I rekon it has cost me £7 ish for all fresh bought stuff, over three days, £2.33 a day. That good or bad? 🤷‍♂️
  6. Get that original bar put back in! Different fire when ya do! Halved my use and much more controllable imo!
  7. Best to buzz a clean line where you want to cut with a flappy disc, same as everything in fabrication, preparation is key! We have one a cebora at work, will cut up to 12mm steel/alloy, its fecking brilliant! [emoji108] you wont look back, and saves loads of time!!!
  8. I really like look of them, hear great reports from people that have them. Mate of mine bought one, paid about £2.5k for it, all came built in to a workstation etc, cant justify that like, but hes cashed up to the gunnels and just gets what he likes, but i’ve been looking at the Joe Jr [emoji106]
  9. What model kamado you got John?
  10. Can you copy the link here of the advert then others can see / advise you more?
  11. Fingers crossed its the nuts that are stripped and you can just replace the studs, but i fear it’ll be the stud to crankcase at fault 🥴🤞
  12. The MS250 is a plastic crankcase/body, the bar nuts run on studs that are wound into the cranckcase body on a course thread. If the studs are spinning in the crankcase body then your only option really is to try and epoxy the studs back in, but might be a long shot and continued use means the owner will have to be very savvy each time he tightens the nuts up again when reassembling the bar and cover. Over tightening will see them slipping/stripping the studs in the crankcase again. Other than trying that if this is the issue then it’ll be a new crankcase/body. From a economical fix point of view then probably a chinese copy crankcase would be the best way to go maybe. Can you post some pics to try and see what we’re looking at?

  16. No i work for Hanson, formerly Castle Cement, had Volvo, Erf, Daf, Merc, Renault over the years. Yeah synchro’s are poor, cable change doesnt help em! Apparently there a mega amounts of “special tools” required to do the gearboxes 🤷‍♂️ not done any myself, and the gears are of a weird metal? Very expensive too, struggle getting em (waiting times) even before covid and now wartime so god knows what stuffs like to get hold of these days! Tbh, for the cost vs down time and stress i’d just bang em in to a gearbox specialist and av done. Always fit new cables though if you have box out for repairs, they wear and stretch so that’ll have knock effects if you put back new with old!

  17. From your pics i think the cylinder will probably clean up well and you’ll get away with fine emery/light hone but hard to be 100% sure without sticking a thumb nail in there [emoji6]
