That's grand as long as you are visible. But you might not be legal as you have non working indicator lamps fitted.

Anyway, good idea Muckit.

I was about to disagree with you but i think you are right.
If the driver is visable and able to give clear hand signals you dont need indicators but if they are fitted they should be working.



I'm in the same boat when i take the quad on the road . no indicators so have to give hand signals

You might have slow internet connection? It's just a light board. Then ive a 7 pin socket wired to 2 crocodile clips. Slip them on battery terminals and viola! Lights.

Shur with the new welder and a bit of rebar you could convert it to a swing down helmet.

No it doesn't, mind you I spent nearly as much on a welding shield as that welder cost.

Strangely enough, the newly opened Welding training college/institute near me will not let you use an auto darkening helmet. I asked about a few Mig and Tig lessons, and when asked what safety gear I had, I was told in no uncertain terms what I could do with my Jefferson helmet. (Throw that thing in a skip and buy a "Noddy" shield with good glass)

You can, but it was the glass quality and level of flash protection he was promoting, not the nodding.

If the vehicle was fitted by the manufacturer then to be legal you must have them fitted and operational.

Draper, Einhell and Bosch do them too.
They'd be at the cheaper end of the scale.
Depending in what part of the country ya are. Joe McKennas, McQuillans, Screwfix, Caulfields Industrial and HandyHardware all have them.

Heat guns or hot glue guns?

White Clover

The hot glue guns have a small nozzle/outlet. What I'm looking for would need to have a 1 or 2 inch outlet, almost like a hair dryer!

Nekarsulm

So hot air paint stripper guns? DeWalt make cheapo ones.
