    Record Bender (needs a lick of paint) £15 all the other bits where 50p each will probably spend tomorrow afternoon giving all of it a little tlc then might upload another pic the bender will probably be the only one that will look dramatically different (only got black paint hahaha)

    I just cleaned out my garage and threw out at least 6 pairs of grips like those, some stilsons and a big box of imperial spanners, the guy at the skips thought it was Christmas. :)

    Thought about it, but to be honest I couldn't be bothered with peeps coming around to collect what ever they fancied leaving me to dispose of the rest anyway.

    Easy.

    I alway add ' TAKE ALL or NOTHING' when listing on Freecycle,etc, seldom get time wasters then.

    Well ive always gone with the theory of if i cant fix it with channel locks ptfe and an adjustable call a plumber as i dont have all the kit, But round my way its very rare for anyone to stick to their trade (never enough work) even got plumbers building decking now hahaha so ive decided to branch out and make as much dosh as possible :)
