A man who knows about these things said to try IPS (Independent Parts and Service), 0845 1084000 if you need anything. They stock parts for pretty much anything powered access wise. Also that there's still quite a few of these in service.

I'm presuming it works OK with the new batteries.I was just trying to hunt down a user / maintenance manual for him. To think a few years back I could have had a Falck Schmidt TS18 Spider for £500 or less! The insurance inspection deemed the chains needed replacing so the client scrapped it. The repair costs vs the ammount it would get used etc. Saying that I wouldn't have used it without new chains.

There's no ID plate on it anywhere?

You could start to look here for a manual: https://www.lectura-specs.com/en/specs/aerial-work-platform/trailer-mounted-articulated-work-platforms-aerial

It'll compliment the dropped ceiling feature perfectly!

I've gleaned from various sources that this is very likely an Aerial K12 platform. Made by Aerial the access division of the British Engines Group in Newcastle. In 1994 they replaced the K12/2 model with a series 2 model. I don't think Aerial are still part of the British Engines Group. I will ask around as to a manual. These platforms are from what I can see dirt cheap. (If I think something's cheap it must be). Maybe as you can't get spares for them and if you start making ad hoc repairs it brings up all sorts of LOLER issues. Often cheaper to scrap it or punt it out to Mr DIY!

Tbh they very likely ditched the wc there back in the day as if having no extraction it would have been a bit unpleasant for adjacent room users.

Result! So it was blocked enough with loose stuff that no smell was coming back up?

Could do . It would look well tacky and crap .

Speaking with someone ex the MEWPs industry and he reckons it could be an older Genie Z34 (12m) machine. Or an Upright as they were very similar. Off to ask others in the know!

You could disguise the loft hatch as a dropped ceiling section with LED lighting. I think @Barney12 did a feature in his kitchen like this (not with a hatch mind).

Euphemism?

What model is it? Looks to be painted Genie blue but no stickers?

Might have been you who put me onto them? Think I've killed the mower battery though by leaving it to freeze over the winter. Might try the Epsom salts trick.

They were recommended to me. Rohan I dealt with there I just remembered. Used a couple of times. One time I paid extra for a faster delivery but the battery got damaged in transit hence never got delivered to me. Apology, good communications and an immediate refund of the courier charge.

Old clay pipe. I'd guess a soil pipe of some sort. Does it point towards any drains or manhole externally? Can't see it being live to a sewer etc or you'd be getting smells back up. Probably capped off in some way. Is there maybe an extension the other side of that wall? A drain camera would be useful to have a look round that bend. What's the pink square down the bottom? Might be a half brick cemented in. Might mean that it does go to a live run but how to get that brick out without damaging the clay pipe in the process! Careful, not hammer drilling maybe? Tipping a small bucket of water down and seeing if it comes out in a suspected drain is always an option.

Can't believe you didn't have a [...] plug that size!

Other threads with lots of whine.

You mean the pitch black wall I can't see? ?

See here 3 mins in. Compares ordinary MK grid and Quinetic grid. Not exactly the same feel but you'll have to accept that. Don't forget you can also get a dimmer receiver, a wifi enabled receiver or a wifi + dimmer receiver so you can control from your phone.

Cheers. Can I get a dual one then and run without oil if blasting, only adding oil if I'm using say the nail gun?

The home made blasting gun was a failure. Tried the Lidl Parkside sandblasting gun and that kept clogging. Off I went and spent £15 on one of these from eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MARKSMAN...324348&hash=item3d8a3920f8:g:In0AAOSwYP9c0CQi It comes with no instructions but as far as I can tell the black rubber hose pushes onto the ribbed connector on the blasting gun. The other end goes on the long pipe which you stick into the blasting media. I did all that, found an airline fitting and screwed that into the bottom of the gun. The metal tube I poked into the big bag of (dry) crushed glass media I got. I drained the compressor of any water. Started blasting and all was good, cleaning up a strut mount top off the wife's old Pug. Very soon though it was just air, not sand coming out. (Same as happened with the Lidl Parkside gun). The air too appears damp as it darkens the metal you're pointing it at. It doesn't darken it when you start off and it's blasting OK. My very uneducated guess is I need a "moisture trap". Tbh I'm a bit of a compressor virgin. Always borrowed one if I've needed to use my nail guns. Spraying, I've only ever done from rattle cans. By a stroke of right place/right time luck I managed to score an Aldi Workzone 24L compressor for the princely sum of £29.95, new and delivered. https://www.aldi.co.uk/workzone-2-5hp-air-compressor/p/078920165026500 Coupled it with some cheap air tools from Aldi & Lidl and tbh it's all good so far. (Yet to try the cheapo spray gun). I think what I need is as I say a moisture trap maybe combined with an "oiler". I have no experience of either. Been looking at something like this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-4-BSP-...375798&hash=item3b3a1dfde0:g:wfoAAOSw8oJdlh0D Specification is: Max Pressure: 220 Psi - Oil Capacity: 130cc - Max Air Flow: 105 Cfm Compared to others on eBay it appears to have the two "glass" cylinders somewhat better protected by what looks like alloy housings. Some are all "glass" which I doubt would last very long with me! A question, using an oiler with a blasting gun seems a bit counter intuitive. Yes, it prolongs the tool life but surely it must deposit a film of oil on the workpiece that then needs degreasing? Any pointers to what's good/bad, what I should look for would be appreciated. Cheers

Thanks. Half recall a good site for upvc door and window spares being mentioned on here once.
