If I can find some in those sizes would scotch eye type be any use?

Why do the clear nights always coincide with a full moon? Had hoped to spot comets but too bright on the couple of clear nights we've had

Probably from a gentleman's club, for removing the ties of disgraced members 😉

Weren't scissors usually the province of cutler's? In which case it might be worth trying the Sheffield industrial museums trust, who apparently hold a list of registered trademarks. Another possibility might be the worshipful company of Cutlers

I used Aspock lights when I refurbished my trailer, from Western towing in this instance. You'd need a board to mount them on but the loom is pre wired and plugs into the back of the light, just buy the length to suit your trailer. Caravan chassis could be a good call. A few years back I broke...

Here you go, a little light reading! https://www.towingandtrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/IVA-manual-2018-09-01.pdf

Is this a gift or a hint?

Also REM- calling Cheryl Baker

Very nice,but if he's anything like me at darts you may need a big sheet of MDF on the floor too

How about the wooden one but the other way up? Lovely turnings those

Definitely hardwood, would not recommend oak as the tannins can cause rust in the eye. Don't wet it for the same reason. If you have an old, hand forged axe that rust can cause the back of the head to split. I was always taught to use wooden wedges in case you ever have to drill the wood out of...

Cut a new wedge wider than the existing one. Make two saw cuts in the handle at right angles to the existing wedge slot spaced just over a third of its length apart. Make sure the head is well seated and drive in your wider wedge. Use a narrow chisel to open a slot in the wedge in line with each...

Looks a bit like a punch needle, or maybe a cannula for degassing a cow!

Bonus point for spelling there, Phil :LOL:

Peter Kay did a brilliant sketch on these and it reminded me of a mate who used to belt out 'it's alright, babies come in bags' to the Eurythmics. Just wondering what other gems are out there?

Not grammar, but the common misuse of discrete instead of discreet can be amusing or annoying
