    Just give it a shot and see if they notice. If it is well done they probably won't.

    Would a plumber's croxing tool work the same? It should if you could find a big enough size.

    Sure did. Just as well I wasn't driving. Might have got a bit loose on the unsealed bit. (Probably not in someone else's car.) A good day out all the same. Post merge can eat a dick.

    My first OS meet. A great day out. Good to meet a few other members irl and put faces to names. Big thanks to @Toddy415 and Mrs Toddy for allowing me to ride along in the wags and to @kiwi808 for shouting me chips and a beer at Riverton.

    I sometimes use a brace with a twist bit to drill steel thereby ensuring a slow speed that will not burn out the bit. Did a bit of track laying on a museum railway once too. We drilled the fishplate bolt holes with the same hand tool technology that would have been used in the 19th century. Pretty sure the tools we were using were older than all of us including the retired guy who knew what to do.

    Yep. The world's fucked mate.

    My EA wags would be ideal. Even has one different coloured door. Shame it's almost at the other end of the country.

    That'd be right. Not meant to resharpen tools nowadays. Bastards expect you to buy new stuff every time something gets blunt.

    Can you split the nut with the cold chisel?

    Why would you even roll with a 25 profile? Might as well just brush a bit of rubberised paint onto the rims.

    I'm in for Saturday. Where should I meet you @Toddy415? And what time?
  12. igor
    Will do.
  13. igor
    That might work. Will have to check times of other things on for Saturday morning.

    Still got no money.

    That should be just a formality with a fresh cert surely?

    My wife and I both have red cars but hers only goes faster when I drive it.

    Yep. Won't please the duck shooters. Feather little fucks'll be flying high with visibility for miles.

    I hope jumping is a euphemism in that sentence Russell.

    Someone will want it.

    If one were to do that would the resultant vehicle bear the identity of the chassis donor or the body donor? Or does it not matter and whichever one has live plates is the winner?

    Just read through that. I was surprised to see airbags mentioned in connection with the substitution of handlebars on a motorcycle.

    Mine's in the middle of the bench but the bench only extends half way along the wall. Grandfather mounted his in the middle of a bench that extended all the way along a short wall of his garage and made a removable hatch so that if he needed to work on long stuff it could just hang out the hole in the wall. My pipe vice is semi outside for ease of use with long pipes.

    Thought those things were extinct.

    When reusing super dry old native that has been standing in a building for many decades it is often good practice to pilot drill the nail holes. If the nails don't bend when you try to hammer them in the wood will split so either way you're fucked if you don't.

    Thought those studded ice tyres were illegal in New Zealand?
