Yeah, but we do 10 hour days, 4 days a week. Friday use to be ot till 1pm. Since job keeper there's been no ot. Only went back to 4 days about a month ago, we did a stent of 3 days for a couple of months, Tuesday lunchtime was half way through the week. That was good...Quote:

OH,OH, forgot to say how good is it that the old two cans and a tight bit of string still work as a dog and bone.
You hang on to things in the hope that someday they'll become useful.
This old stationary cabinet I inherited from my grandfather. Amazed to see that the calendar is back in date [emoji23]

It is manganese, so if you want to actually weld to it you'll need to use a 310 (from memory) stainless steel electrode.Quote:

Thanks mate, it's fresh from the quarries, so yeah I'll try give it a real good burn with no one else around. As for the welding I'll just get my fabby neighbour to sort that out hahaQuote:

The old Mobilco slasher did not let me down (second pull fired up)_gets into it (Kohler 6 1/4 hp side valve old timer m/c 1960s).
Started cleaning up garden for the start of veg season.
Surprised finding the sugar snap and snow peas ready for picking (some for tea).
Eldest finally goes back to high school today a week later than the littlens.
Poor buggers have been stuck at home schooling since March 2020.
What a long haul Victoria, keep up the good work [emoji120][emoji106]
