Certainly not a business - I'm retired and don't want that sort of pressure any more- just having fun in my dotage  :beer:

Yes, but does the electricity meter take shillings (aka 5p coins) or is there a slot in the controller where you just plug your debit card?!?!   :doh:   :doh:


 

awemawson:
Well I got them to install three phase in exchange for access for re-cabling their poles & transformer so that was f.o.c. and I got them to put in a heavier supply so when eventually I re-commission my 100kva induction furnace I can run off the grid rather than run my 100kva generator as I did at the last place we moved from. Obviously the running costs are significant  :bugeye:  if used often but in reality it's fairly infrequent.  :beer:

I have this vision of you sat with an enormous pile of 5p pieces trying to put them in the meter fast enough.

That's what the conveyor is for...

Have you tried Steve Cox on 07836 736496, he runs landylift in West Yorks, but his other job is repairing CNC machinery.
