Jimsiss Posted March 9, 2007 Report Posted March 9, 2007 should save up and buy a cheap osf then save up and buy a Mig welder and learn to weld your OSF, just steal your dads tools, I steal my dads My list is as follows: Mk2 mexico: £300 Welder: pay for consumables and use our friends - about £10 per quarter Toolbox: dad bought me one plus various othertools Other tools: 5 finger discount from my dads toolbox Welding helmet with auto darkening: £90 recalled unit thats been refurbed see, you'll have an OSF ready for when you are 17
alladdin Posted March 9, 2007 Report Posted March 9, 2007 i dont know when it drops sorry, you see it in the sun/mirror adds now and then. dont bother with a/f allen keys as you wont ever use them. get a ball pien hamer not a clay hammer. unless you want a wood car ! you dont get a set of a/f spanners, but you can get these seperate. also get decent screwdrivers. if you aint got a car yet then just sit on the money. 75 quid for a box can be better spent when you have no tools, and if its a clark / stackon etc you will be dissapointed.
School boy1 Posted March 9, 2007 Report Posted March 9, 2007 This is a damn good idea! I was also thinking about getting a knackered engine that no one wants and learning about mechanics and how an engine works in practice by just having a play around.
