Dry here at the mo.
Awaiting food delivery then W off to do chairtaichi
And I'll have a bash at changing the transducer on the Disco. Fingers crossed that is solves the issue so tight it hurts!
Off to view the auction.
W interested in the usual, me in one job lot of watches and a Leitz-Leica camera which looks like a set as there are lenses etc with it.
The ludicrous guide price is £20 to £40 should make 10 times that unless there is a lot wrong with the camera, even in today's digital age, they keep their value. Have always wanted one so a set would be amazing.
Crossed fingas again that no one else who cares is looking but as they are ont tinternet someone else is bound to have seen it.
Have a great day folks!

It just started raining here.
Just as I was finishing replacing a dead rear light bulb.
After having successfully mended the ACE by replacing the transducer as recommended by Sierraferry.
Twas a complete member of Barstaff to get out and put the new one in. The pipes get right in the way, and even with u/js, extensions etc I ended up having to go off and buy a set of adaptors and U/J s to be able to go from 1/2" to 3/8" and back.
BUT as soon as I finished, about 1 1/2 hours after I started, I turned the key and the blessed ACE light went off!
So after lunch I'll be booking a new MOT.
Enjoy the rest of the day!!

Probably best to have a few hot-toddy's and then go to bed with a hot man. That should see it off.
We all hope you feel very much better, very soon. Big Love, all of us.

...today I wasted an hour and a half making a pair of chuck keys for the 4-Jaw (an odd size (9/32") to all the others that I have).
They are a bit crude, but they will will work just fine. Dialling in to 1 thou' or under is easy when you use 2 opposing keys at the same time.

Hain't had a chance to road test the Disco yet.
But bin to the auction rooms.
Watches are very promising but sadly the Leica was a "spares or repair" job. Such a shame. How can anyone store such a lovely, classic camera so badly?
Celebratory drink before dins.
Hve a nice evening folks!

How can that be "wasted" if they work?...today I wasted an hour and a half making a pair of chuck keys for the 4-Jaw (an odd size (9/32") to all the others that I have).

Happy for you!
