Onoff

Getting on with my mower deck. These curved, internal shields are shot. I think these help direct the grass out the back. All I have is some 1mm steel sheet. I've cut some 70mm wide strip. Next to clean up and MIG on:

I'm looking for something suitable to fit into the back of the adapter like this, to keep an eye on the state of the Li-ion battery I don't want it on all the time just when I press a button. Any thoughts? Cheers.

I've bought an Einhell 36V chainsaw from Amazon Germany: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07FD8BK2D/ref=pe_3044161_185740101_TE_item Going to print a couple of battery adapters to use Makita batteries on it.

Sorry but why not CT1? Or CT1 Power Grab n Bond. I stuck all the tiles to the marine ply sides of my bath.

Well I Aqua Panelled my walls AND tanked them in the wet room corner as well as the whole bathroom floor.

I thought you were well aware of liquid tanking systems? This is the one I used. Forms like a rubber membrane. Yes you just prime it with tile primer and tile onto it.

Why not just liquid tank that strip then tile?

?

Best fit yet for the Makita to Marksman/Champion 18V Adapter:Almost like it was made to fit!

I quite like the Terrain stuff.

A couple more renders.It'll be attached to the base of the grinder by 6 of Screwfix's finest 4mm Gold wood screws!

Could you.....drill some bfo holes like 100mm dia and "flood" the cavity with low expansion foam or eps beads rammed in etc.

I sort of get it! Be nice to have that gap filled up with something "insulaty".

Off down the rabbit hole again! As I think aforementioned, I have a bunch of cheap 18V tools, all different makes, bought on a whim in closing down sales (Focus / Do It All), from Makro etc. I just never use them. Repairing the lawn mower deck and the grinder batteries were just not holding charge. The Nicad / NimH batteries are a SIMILAR shape and some batteries will fit other tools OK. Others will fit and power the tool but the locking clips that hold the battery in won't line up. Others the + and - terminals are switched but you can put the battery in and turn through 180deg then duct tape it in. Honestly a lot of faffing! Vague plan again to make adapters for all of them to take Makita batteries. And so... Using the ill fated Makita battery to Ferrex tool 3D printed parts (the tool turned out to be duff) I'm setting about making an adapter for an 18V Rolson grinder.

Waste oil burner for the workshop surely? ?

What's wrong with overthinking?

...or their next door neighbour's wall. Who was it on here did that? I remember I think @Russell griffiths helped them sort it.

Getting there: Looks better than it is!

Welcome onboard. Someone who knows will be along in a minute.

They have a commercial machine to do this bought in at the static site I'm stood down from. Ref DIY electrolysis, do I recall a problem using stainless steel electrodes? Something about poisonous off gassing?

Been hankering after a cordless 36V chainsaw for a while. I already run Makita tools so have the batteries. The Makita twin 18V chainsaws seem to have been climbing in price to around £200 for a bare unit so... Thinking to buy one of these Einhell chainsaws at £120 from CPC: https://cpc.farnell.com/einhell/ge-lc-36-35-li-solo/36v-chainsaw-bare-unit/dp/SI18644? Then get my lad to print a couple of Makita battery to Einhell tool adapters: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2472385 Saving about £80 not buying a Makita tool. Hmmm...
