Something that I think we already know

[Snaf MKII]

It's One ...look very closely at the tip

And you'll see the chisel edge that takes the load. That's one smack over the head with a bit of 4x2

[Asgard]

Snaf its, its all one continuous edge there is no break in it.......... I think the 4x2 however does (I was wearing me elmet)

Ah yes but how many edges does that 4x2 have?

Greetings Asgard,

I was at St Athans for basic trade training back at the end of 1969.

I had already qualified in the motor industry and was fed up of doing the same things so went for aircraft propulsion with an eye on trying to be accepted for pilot training but on heavy transport aircraft. Ends up basically the same since all internal combustion engines are effectively the same and although I had my full tech plus management qualifications I didn't have an 'O' level English language so was barred from interview

I had a great time though and would recommend youngsters do the same.

TTFN

Hugh.

Another HowTto, for the collection.

The title might say "modern" but a bit dated now, I don't think folk re-rivet brake or clutch linings any more

Here's something that might appeal to old codgers like me, yes I know it's metric!

[Tonibe63]

Not used a Zeus for years, infact I seem to remember mine was both metric and imperial seeing as there was a foot in each camp back in 1980.

[daveuprite]

seeing as there was a foot in each camp back in 1980.

You mean there were 30.48 centimetres in each camp.

[Asgard]

Aaha..as an old codger that never throws stuff out...I still have one.
Though it says metric revision, most of the stuff in it is still Imperial (UNC. UNF, BSP threads etc)

Can't see a date on it
