Council have so many they just leave them along the road

A true Cavan man would never waste money on an insulator for a plastic cone!
A little cut at 45 degrees with the grinder or hacksaw would do rightly!

( great idea though)

Ah sure you're just doing the Council a favour by picking them up off the road for them. Sure all the locals know about the collapsed bank into the ditch. If someone drives into it, they're probably a cheeky blow in that shouldn't be on your roads anyway :pac:

How many cones are in yards up and down the country an none of them paid for!

Saw this in my Facebook feed.
The first “contraption” actually scared me, having worked with a guy when he caught his hand in a machine and mangled it I actually felt a bit sick watching it.
It’s the most dangerous piece of gear I’ve seen in a long time.

This is the one that really gets to me. How could anyone with any sense use one. I was at an agricultural show recently and saw one working in the vintage section. Saw it working in the distance and as I got closer, realised I knew the guy. Did a quick 180 turn.

Nice short video showing how to use high tensile wire to make a non slip gate handle holder on a mains fence.

Putting up a temp polywire fence, I used always hook handle and then carry reel and unspool. Hard to do while still carrying 10-12 pigtails.

Now l hook the reel onto the main line, release catch and hook handle into my belt loop. Then start pacing out and placing stakes. Hook handle to where u want line to finish then walk back and wind up reel until tight,loop polywire around hook and reattach.

If you are moving a machine, don't leave it on its side in the back of the jeep.....
It was basically scrap, so worth a try.

Remember the safety glasses for the first wash.

First wash is on, no leaks yet!
A soldering iron with some kind of heat control would have been handy...

Bet you were always wondering what them bolts that came with the machine were for.

I’d say he knows but can’t remember on what job he used them.

Surely only someone with experience of opening damaged ATMs could be capable of such precise guntering

I followed best practice and froze it in a local butchers cold store for 24 hours, before cutting the side of it open...

That reminds me of the time when I was visiting Mam at home (a few years ago) and she asked me to get a brown soda loaf from the freezer. I picked the first small parcel that I saw and brought it into the kitchen. Luckily I unwrapped it first as it contained a part of a computer - I think it was called a mother board?? - that my eldest brother was fixing and he had put it into the freezer the previous night.
What's with computers and freezers?
