Were kindly lent a demo model to test and crikey it’s a commercial use weapon of a thing!
I believe once psi on pressure washers goes above 4,500psi a licence or some user certification might be needed hence while Stihl kept it under that Nanny number?

Should’ve just maxed the old credit card out months ago in hindsight instead of saving! Blokes have just done 2 days + of old work in only a couple of hours today with the new Stihl RB-800 [emoji106][emoji106]

Sometimes we’ve gotta make our own custom wacky tools :-)! Thanks to @rusty_nail & @matfew ‘s help & @AB ‘s old kind paddock truck donation. A few more strengthening mods and grapple tines connected and we’re off to the private sloppy coupe again to grap some quick sticks hopefully.

So I saw this and could not resist

http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...019/08/184.jpg

My local as said they had sold out quickly and had never stocked before. Needless to say they might become a standard item..

Given it's about 10mm it really is not an issue of quality, you are going to rip the head 9ff any 10mm before you wreck these.

Happy with this kit f0r the price.

So you have a broken Thread Tap in a hole. Big problem cause it has broken because it bound up and sheers . The Tap has 4 flutes which have the cutting edges on them. Your options are pointy pliers and pin punch. Good luck. Hardened steel so you can't drill them out.

Instead. You insert this 8nto the hole and the castles go into the flutes and you use your tapping spanner to undo it. I can't believe I did not know about this until now . Essential equipment. Broken taps suck!!!

Clever, but already a master at getting broken taps out - 30 yrs in the food industry working with SS, see all the trick the tradies use and there are a few. This one however sound damn smart. Might just pick one up myself - thanks!

So simple, so smart!

Bet it was invented by someone looking down a hole that just said "oh shit", or words to that effect.
