What are you up to in the workshop?

[AYF]

Bought myself a new to me rappa fence winder off of Facebook.
It arrived and what was parked beside the pallet but the old sheep snacker..... didn't even bother putting it on the quad!!
Snacker runs in line with the bilke so works like a dream.
4 bolts and could go back to being a snacker, heck could feed sheep as it is!
Less faff than taking it on and off the bike. And is itsown storage on wheels!!

I got a price for Jcb pins a while back around 35mm iirc. they were something stupid like €200 for a pin!

 

[Bog Man]

Cormac Coogan has all the pins for Volvo. Not sure does he lower himself to supply JCB parts. I asked a supplier about a pullers and he said he supplied Coogans with m30 treaded bar in black.

Thanks for that. My pin out of stock at the minute but I can wait as half the price.

The prices I got were from Coogan. Maybe he was pricing for the pair but I doubt it.

Still working on my camper project, it's getting there.

Had the lidl plasma in action making some load spreading plates for the seat mounting bolts



fished power cables through some recycled alkathene using string, a bit of tissue and blew that threw with compressed air. worked a treat.


Lots of carpentry and plumbing going on




Sadly my shiny new track saw, which has really upped the quality of my work massively did not survive a fall onto concrete yesterday.


I'm not sure a more expensive brand would have fared much better but I'm in a dilemma of buying another triton and having this for parts for life or upgrading to a makita. currently erring towards another triton I think.

Fair play @JohnBoy. The camper is coming on well. On the saw, if you were happy with the Triton for what you’re using it for, I’d be sticking with it. Especially when you have one for parts. Unless of course the inevitable happens and the new one does the same as the old one. Nothing worse than having 3 parts machines all suffering from the same issue don’t ask how I know that

 

[JohnBoy]

@ZetorMan98 hopefully they havent changed models in the last fortnight

Was looking at pulling a few pins on the Volvo and I found out Phil hydraulics hire out hollow ram pullers and porta powers . They have depots in various parts of the country but their workshop is in Carlow

It shifted so Headed off for the dinner. One treaded bar pulling and the other pushing with a belt of the big sledgehammer and a bit of judicious use of heat.

Do you find that the treaded bar in not an exact fit on the pins? I have used it myself and it does the job but it seems a bit loose.

I tightened a nut up against the pin so there was no movement on the tread . I used the black treaded bar on the pulling side and welded a nut to the pin on the pushing side so when we hit it did not mushroom the pin .
