Do you have to hold those flexi hose ends on??? I thought they'd all just clip on???

I want to buy a grease gun. I had one about 20 years ago and all I can remember is that more grease came out of it than went into the thing I was greasing.

Any recommendations, gotta be under $100.

very nice gear. A long time ago, I was dead keen on making custom front bars for 4x4's and had a very good look at that speedwerx stuff, it's very nice. The idea never got anywhere. Congrats Daz.

Hahaha, classic mr mudski. I used to do that, now I just fall asleep.....

Thanks Daz, I'll check it out when I get home.

I looked these ^^^ up. You can get 'em on eBay everywhere. They're called foam twist ties or something. Wish I bookmarked 'em coz i can't find 'em now.

yeah, all good, I just need to bend stuff, so doesn't sound a like a problem for me.

I have so much respect for folks who work with metal as a trade, there are so many great skills that you guys...

Hi pearcey, doesn't really matter, whatever I have at hand, if it looks about the right size, I'll use it/bend it.

If you bend one using dies for the other, does it stuff the material up???

yes, yes, yes. Been on a few benders over the years.,

I'm after a bender, nothing big, just to bend small rhs and tube

well spoken Bruce, I was wondering this too.

Yep, we use a steel one, they work very well.

What a shame, I was in Bunnings yesterday, I'll have to go back.

Thanks MB.

Where did you get those things from MB? That is EXACTLY what i've been looking for quite a while. What are they called??

Hey that's a great idea MB, I looked at some tool drawers in Bunnings yesterday and they're a bit pricey. I think I'll copy your idea, that looks perfect.

I can imagine the noise that mallet bench...

I'm looking at getting a tool trolley, might end up making one. Needs a steel top so I can weld on it and drawers large enough to keep power tools in. Be good if I can fit a vice on it as well.

haha, it's only a matter of time before I do that.

On what I was doing on the weekend, I measured and measured and took my time and still cut too much off something I had to shorten, now I've...

Used my rivet nut tool this past weekend. Why did I wait so long before I got one of these things.

finally after decades got one of these. wanted one before I could weld, then I could weld so just welded nuts onto stuff, but the time came ...

Thanks for that info, appreciate the help.

Hey Phil, were do you get bottles recertified? I've got a bottle, the shape of which I've never seen anywhere, it is old, at least 30, maybe closer to 40 years.

Do the bottles have a lifespan like the consumer BBQ bottle swap n go gas??

where do you buy the gas bottles from? I rent from BOC, do they sell them as well?

Around $65/qtr and I might not do any welding for 6 months, so yeah, it's money for nothing. How much are the E...

um ^^ ?????

Hey Cuppa, are those Jung pliers from Germany?
