Can anyone provide me with a link to the uk website that advertises model and machine tool etc.  ? 

I want to try to get rid of my YAG laser  (https://www.madmodder.net/index.php/topic,13723.msg164933.html#new)  to someone with more time than me.

Hi folks,

I get the boiler back together, reinstalled, but just get started on the flue and run out of Mig gas, so its on to some other joblets to fill in! Boiler is refilled with no leaks, so the Fernox leak sealer has triumphed once again, other makes are available! A short, mainly wet week!

Phil, June 1st is grey and cold in East Yorkshire!

"I can make it worse...

I didn't tell you about the whole body shave prior to the operation...  (Or indeed, the nightmare of the regrowth!)"

Nope, body shaving doesn't scare me.  Unless it's a female who chooses to have a shaved head, that just seems wrong.  (Sexist of me I know, but some guys with shaved heads are pretty scary too.)

It does tend to conjure up images from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" doesn't it.  Gonna be hard to un-see that, even if it is only imaginary.

Six weeks are up on Monday, so I can finally take off the support stockings and get back to my normal fish-nets and suspender belt  :)

There is a picture I won't easily ****  :D :D

The circuit is only supposed to be powered up for a couple of seconds. Turn on, dirty big cap fills up with 'angry pixies', to quote a certain Canadian, then said pixies are escorted out of the cap into a coil when power is removed. The collapsing magnetic field disrupting any magnetic alignment in a tool located in the target zone.
