heeeeeelloo! :acute: Remember me? Probably not....only made a brief appearance, posted a load of crap and then disappeared..... Aaaaaaaaanyway, it just so happened that in between the 20 things I was doing, the 30 things I was planning to do and the 40 things I SHOULD be doing, I tripped...

I'll let the pics do the talking. it's about 700mm long. :)

the reason why there's been no progress with my chopper recently...... Before: Last week: Earlier today: Mostly built with scavenged materials and stuff I had laying around. With summer here we spend a lot of time outside cooking on the BBQ, enjoying a beer etc so it was time...

Picked up this totally awesome oldskool welding earth clamp at the scrap yard for ten bucks today! :113:

anyone know anything about this? Don't remember where I found the pic... :39: :)

found this at the scrapyard. Unusual looking clamp. Anyone know what it was used for? Seems specialized. Made from brass maybe....?

what do people use? The hydraulic jack type? The brute force type? Been looking at a couple on eBay for around $150-$200. Some boast 12 tonne force. Not sure how true that is. How much do you need? I have no idea about these things. If the "dies" are good enough and the rest of the setup is a...

Been having a go at welding some chain links together, and to be honest, the results have been pretty dreadful. (Mig welder) So far I've laid the chain in some angle iron, tightened it at both ends and tried to weld the links together, but it ends up very messy.... :( Also stretched some chain...

I've been playing with both removing, creating and preserving rust a bit lately. First: Electrolytic rust removal. I had been doing a lot of reading about the different ways to remove rust without using abrasives. There's all sorts of ways to do it, soak in vinegar, molasses and all kinds of...

This all started a while back as a mate moved from 3 doors away to a couple of blocks away and I needed something to get me there and back when catching up for a beer or ten. Had a couple of bikes laying around. This one, and the yellow one as seen in the Rat Poison thread. One had a busted...

It all started here one afternoon.... Second donor bike Wheel barrow legs...

good morning! Am working on a rat chopper made from 3 bikes, wheelbarrow parts and whatever else I can find. Will start a thread on it soon. Lots of photos. :)
