We previously had a Blaupunkt 55inch which we bought from Home bargains for £299. It was brilliant and was still working well when I gave it to my brother. We replaced it with a 75" inch LG ULTRA HD 4K TV (75UK6200p). I must admit it was quite literallylike having an elephant in the room at...

Hi Rob, i've trawled through my email archives from 2 to 3 years ago but could not locate the details. The bike in question is still under cover in my back yard and has "Challenger" emblazoned on the frame, it's a folding bike. I re-used a few of the non-mission critical parts on my other bikes...

I don't profess to know the in's and outs of "global manufacturing and capabilities" do you? Yes/ no? I do not specify, when purchasing, where the product is manufactured and sometimes you do find the origin until the package is opened. For many products it is not possible to "specify" or "make...

Nice work. Is that an MG Midget poking out behind the curtains?

Hi Mike, I have a Type 17 (1942-45) made in England No. 5 Stanley Bailey, the Tote could possibly be Beech, but the Knob certainly is'nt. As this plane was built during the WW11 it could have been made out of anything. It has the characteristic hardened rubber depth adjuster nut. I also have a...

Many thanks guys for your quick response. My apologies I should have given the chuck diameter which is indeed 100mm. It therefore does seem that it is a SK100. My nearest Axminster store is probably Nuneaton. Once again guys thanks.

Hello. I'm new to the forum and am hoping that someone could help me identify the chuck I have been using for the past couple of years. It came on a second- hand APCT M900. The chuck works fine, but I would like to buy a set of spigot jaws for it. I have disassembled the chuck to clean it and...
