Slik 50

That is unreal

Way to go mate, Stick by your guns! I for sure will never use them after reading this thread

Consider it sent mate. British and proud

This is a stick up what?

WTF is that lunatic on

You work in a scap metal merchants don't you Slik? I have about 65 Kg of 316 Stainless but am getting the run around from everywhere I try and take it. The standard answer seems to be "If you can't prove it's 316 then I'm only paying minimum stainless rates" Well derrr, there's nearly £400 a ton difference between the two rates, no wonder they're all trying to pull a fast one on me. Any suggestions? I do mate and its all a little new to me at the mo as I have only moved to the main prossesing yard about 4 months ago, Before I worked over at the car dimantaling site then over to the new cars parts shop! I do know though that the magnectic pull is diffrent between 316 and 18-8 stainless also the origine is a good giveaway like if its from somesort of phamicuticles(sp) or kitchen ect its normally 316. You may be able to do a spark test on it. You can deffo do an acid test but your getting a little envolved there But if you are real lucky it will have some thing stamped or printed on it like a few numbers or somthing that may be traceable to the source codes! Basically if the lads that work there have no idea then they are fooking idiots. We have lads that have worked with metal for decades so realy know there stuff which is really handy when you deal with gypos all day, Thats another sign of a good yard mate If its full of gypos then the yard really knows there stuff I dont know the latest prices as I have not been in work for two weeks and the price changes daily but two weeks ago we were buying it for around £1100 PMT and 18-8 for around £650 PMT. Hopr that helps mate

I would deffo use it without a second thought and I would also pay a yearly fee or what ever as I feel that I am pretty competent in the home mechanic deparment its just that when you, and say your wife both use your cars daily for comuting ect it can be very tricky trying to sort out the simplest of things like servicing ect and just for ease I book them in at a garage to have it done, wich turns a job from just £40 in parts to £80 in parts and labour! when you are talking about 3 cars in your house hold that get seviced twice a year, the money soon mounts up! Its also some of the simpler jobs that turn into a pain in the arse but when you have a roof over your head, lights, a ramp and tools that you can use untill the small hours of the morning without worry, It tends to help. It would be just like a self service garage thats open 24 hours a day. But having about £7000 in hand tools and tool boxs ect I would be very concerned on people that had access to the stuff! It may not be the lads that pay to use the place it could be there freinds that they have taken along for company or whatever!

I used to run 20/50 Valvolene VR1 and never had a problem, but I would use what Jeff recomends

They banned it at work the other month but I only ever natterd to my brother as I dont have much time once the gypo's and smack heads decide to wake up and come in to way the crap they stole the night before

all the best mate and have a ruddy good time

Sold the remains of the sierra and my much loved Raligh burner last night via ebay I hate selling stuff but its safe to say that im not going to own another sierra and im way to big for the burner So I have posted them this morning and im still awaitng payment for a few other bits and bobs. I was late for picking the youngest up from school at dinner time so that didnt go down well Still of for the rest of the week and go back to work on saturday so it will be mainly chours this aft, I have still got to decide what to burn for tea yet. This house husband sh1t is tough bloody work Still the hunt for the next OSF continues

That was class

We have a full set on onw of our fork trucks at work it also has a 4in exhast tip and pink fluffy dice. I kid you not, its the fastest fork truck in the yard

Phils gone quiet

WTF are you on mate

I dont think its a bad price mate! One of the lads I work with had his own buisness refurbing wheels and he charged about £100 a wheel! Its a lot of cash considering you can buy a brand new one for little more but he speacilized in big mercs and astons ect. What sort of 4 spokes are they as midland wheels I belive has just started selling the RS 4 spoke style rim at a resonable price

She wasn't a BM, she's my cousin but I'm with you on your assessment! LOL mate, I think pip meens the dude in the skirt Glad it all went well mate

makes no sense to me, But i do have the iq of a tin of spam

But it is oddly belivable

LMAO at pip I was thinking more......... Sorry Jason

Hopeing to buy my first OSF (what a bloody task that is getting to be ) then as and when I get it Im ordering a load of goodys from across the pond and get the grinder and welder out ready for some serious body modifacations

Mate you have a cool box full of stella and ice cream next right next to your sofa. Do you live in paradise
