A day of coincidences

[AdrianRParticipant @adrianr18614]

Yesterday, I finally made my mind up about buying a new regulator and hose for an old Sievert torch. Immediately after placing the order I do my daily check of the classifieds and see a Sievert blowtorch, regulator and tank for sale not too far from me, Grrrr.

In the workshop whilst sorting my dads old stuff, I was thinking about making cover to catch the swarf out of damp proof course I have. I find pop rivets, aluminium sheet off cut, and a magnetic door catch. I then even found a 1/8" drill for the pop rivets and some washers that fit. I now have a very nifty swarf catcher.

Then later just after reading about Myfordboy's flywheels being made from ZnAl which I had never considered as a weighty material. My wife walks in with a large wheel balancing weight which has ZnAl cast into the side.

One advantage of online ordering is you can cancel it or return the item….
