Geranium oil, just a few drops in the shoe and it will stay fresh for weeks.

I worked with a bloke and his trainers stank, they'd make me want to vomit, it was honestly like he was wearing roadkill on his feet, I gave him a bottle of geranium oil, problem solved.

 

We've got Alan titchmarsh here I think

No, I raided the wife's aromatherapy oils. They used thyme oil for trench foot in WW1, I tried that too but found geranium better.

Also orange or lemon oil is second to none for getting old stickers and decals off.

Took the wife down to the Super Sausage for breaky...and it was heaving at 10am. They didn't take card at the outside hatch, so we loaded up and went off to Jack's Hill instead - which was as awful as it's ever been. Honestly, instant coffee? Who drinks instant coffee?

 

My wife usually declines my invitations to go down for super sausage.

 

Maybe she’s loading up on meat when you’re not about?

I doubt it, she's a vegan you twat.

That's impressive. You could create any shape tank you want once it fits inside the 3d printer. Do you think it would be possible to print a whole bike in the future? Maybe it's the end of large scale manufacturing Instead everyone has a printer and prints off their own stuff

I think almost everything will be 3D in the future, perhaps not printers as we know them today.

What I like about the method I've used, is you don't need to make a plug, then a mold, you simply print what you want, one offs are a breeze.

You can see galvanic corrosion between stainless spoke nipples and alloy rims or stainless spoke in cast alloy hubs. Stainless and aluminium are on opposite ends of the galvanic series, zinc is close to aluminium, that's why zinc plated bolts tend not to seize in aluminium over time.

I've been experimenting with 3D printing body work, including fuel tanks. It's taken a bit of experimenting but I'm now very happy with the process.

The tanks are printed in "fuzzy" mode which is like scotchbrite, this helps absorb the vinylester (PETROL PROOF) resin when I fibreglass the inside.

I bring the two fibreglass halves together and caulk the recessed joint with resin/glass stand, I then run a bit of resin around the joint on the inside. The filler neck and tap spigot are welded to stainless plates that are bonded on the inside and fibreglass over. The composite is very strong, the small tank you can stand on!

I didn't print the grey seat but I printed all the other parts

Rocol make good products, it's more expensive for reason. If there's an underlying issue then then it still may not work.

Yep, I have a 2.7 and a 3.0, I got them years ago for a couple of hundred quid.

Hello Folks,

Thanks for having me, I've got feed up with the non-motorcycle related drivel that appears on my Facebook, despite being very choosy with my friends, I'm noting getting my motorcycle fix, I 'll hang quietly here and checkout what you guys are up to in your sheds and garages

Here's one of my projects
