Yeah, I’m lucky with kit but the liquid is ammonia and in a heated tank so the parts come out warm to hot and dry quite quickly once laid out. Of course you have the benefit of the blazing French sunshine so would have the advantage of me! 😉
Aha!
V interesting!
You can get "ammonia" over here as easily if not more than acetone.
And I'm certain that you'd have to pick your day if you wanted blazing French sunshine, at the mo. Conspicuous by its absence recently!! ;)

Oh dear. :(:(
As others have said, it happens.
When it happened to me, and not as badly as to you, poor you, I vowed never to to let it happen again so now always have clamps to hold it.
Was it a flattish thinnish bit? They are the worst.
Hope it heals up quick and with no complications. ;)
 
... that my worktops are arriving on Thursday, and they refunded the £35 delivery charge as the order was >£500. :)
...that the new sink will be arriving this afternoon. :)
I had better get a worktop-fitter lined up hadn't I? :D
You do mean yourself of course? Although mebbe one of your sons will give you a hand with the lifting into place of them as they can be heavy things.
I have been moving the big one around in my garage using ratchet straps slung from the trusses and resting it on some trestles. I weighed it, "only" 50 kgs but SO awkward.
Best of luck with it!:):):)
 
Funnily, with our silver wedding anniversay coming up in a few days time, that might be a great present for both of us.
She can do her bling in it and I can do my mechanicals in it!
Or maybe we should just get a parts washer.
