My 240 volt compressor was on the fritz today and needed to use my pneumatic nailer so thought I'd plug it into the new double thumper from that joint , so plugged in the air lead and gun plugged in thumper , it ran for about four seconds and cut out .
I'm swearing and cursing and checked volts but they were ok , maybe a fuse , no that was ok , now I'm thinking that cheap is not always good you idiot serves you right .
Mate who was with me picks up nailer and starts nailing away and after the third nail the thumper fires into life for two seconds and cuts out again , then I realised that it's turned off because that's what this one does when it gets to 150 psi
Now where's that bloody instruction manual I turfed .
For the record I tested the three inch nail gun as well and no problem .

Bought some free air from the petrol station to day to pump up my tyres. They seem to ride better at 45 PSI. All so bought a couple bags of dung to throw in to the compost heap.

I actually got this ages ago but only opened it today. It's the spill free coolant and system bleeding funnel. Comes with various attachments and radiator cap types.
I guess this is a fancy version of the coke bottle trick.

I have one f these and they are brilliant. You can put a plug in the bottom so that you don't spill any fluid when the rad is full and you want to take it out. Can't do that with a coke bottle

I scored a 3 year old Offroad Systems (ORS) Aluminium Fridgepack drawer system with 2 stacked drawers and the fridge slide down low. Paid about 1/3rd the price of a new set and should be able to modify wings etc easily enough to suit the Patrol.

Yep, they should be a bit lighter than my old home made set in the last vehicle. I was going to modify my homemade set, but they are damned heavy and I really wanted to get away from using a drop slide again. I think the double stacked drawers and low fridge are a better option for my use.
