  1. Radiator mounting point repairs today As you can see a bit worse for wear cut off and ends cleaned up Then tinned with some solder next bit was a bit more trying due to shape Flattened out Then started making new piece Tinned new section soldered together Regards Stephen
  2. That is looking very splendid indeed, lovely work Regards Stephen
  3. A wee bit of Improvisation on my turbo pipe ( had to shorten it to keep hurbie happy....lol ) Flat washer nipped up on my small bead roller Cut turbo pipe Rolled regards Stephen
  4. I would bleed it through to the injectors, then you know it's also through the fuel injection pump also make sure stop solenoid is wired up on the back of the pump regards Stephen
  5. It is at the moment....... Give me a chance.............lol Regards Stephen
  6. Intercooler now sorted bit of a faff on however it's fitting not bad Large gap to fill cut into more bits tacked and tried cut away section to allow fitment at power steering box in position regards Stephen
  7. That sounds as boring as me...lol Regards Stephen
  8. Couldn't resist this, don't see much with lightweights on yep I'm that sad....... regards Stephen
  9. Yep that's them, I have a tool for fitting them but 3 nuts of the right thread will do the job, put all three on threaded section, the last two nip together and hold them with one spanner while you tighten the bottom one up, until it is tight and material is nipped between rivet stud flanges, apologies if your aware of this regards Stephen
  10. Not tigged up yet but bracketry sorted to fit intercooler to front panel regards Stephen
  11. Thought I'd best try bonnet on looks OK Tigged a hinge on in the wrong position though, but that's easy enough sorted with the tig regards Stephen
  12. Oh dear Ed, you have my sympathies Would have taken me 15 minutes with a midway teabreak.............lol Regards Stephen
  13. The one in the background is a Series 2a, it had been started previously, then abandoned due to house move a decade ago, future project now.......lol Regards Stephen
  14. A lot less done than planned today due to my alternator on my doblo packing in, what a pain to change by the way So trial fit of wings and front panel to see how it's going together, wings held on with a rivet at the moment Could probably do with some better pictures in daylight it is starting to take shape though Regards Stephen
  15. I still use corded ones extensively, no way my battery charging can keep up with tool use some days regards Stephen
  16. Works fine, guard is a bit bent creating an illusion, home made locking but on it but I've got plenty of spare proper ones regards Stephen
  17. An assortment of so called scrap chucked out at work.. I saw it as my duty to rescue it if you haven't already guessed our fitters don't sharpen drills they just get a new one, grinders work champion, wrong type of triggers, all good to me regards Stephen
  18. That's fine If you read back I made some rubber/ nylon washers to help with keeping steel and aluminium faces apart, the other purpose of that material will dampen vibration and prevent nuts coming off, the nyloc nuts are there to protect the threads due to their extra length, not required to be used as locking nuts, even if they were the exposed threads would rust eventually and effectively make it difficult for nuts to unwind. The old ones I took off had to be ground off and they were just your normal nut and no spring washers regards Stephen
  19. All my other Milwaukee gear has and is amazing especially my 5" grinder, now that has had plenty of abuse and still going strong, if it failed tomorrow it owes me nothing regards Stephen
  20. Tested switch was working perfectly regards Stephen
