Had a disappointment yesterday. Cleaned under the 3 duckboards. Found 1off M6 nut, only! (Apart from a shovel full of swarf, filings, dust, spiders etc).  :bugeye:

I then looked at the rest of the shop...... And decided to do some more machining!  :D

I understand most of the British terminology but what are the duckboards? Does it mean under the benches and cupboards etc or is it something else. Inquiring minds wish to know.  :lol:

Cheers  :beer:

This is a typical example.
They are normally used for standing on near workbenches.

Thanks Dave. I have seen them and used them but never knew that is what they were called.  :doh:

Thanks for the picture. Just a good old wooden mat, makes it easier on the feet and legs. :)

Cheers  :beer:

I've got rubber matts to stand on by my lathe.

Does that make them "rubber ducky boards"?  :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
