I am sure Mr & Mrs Steamer are used to taking every precaution to prevent such awful injuries.

I wouldn't know , but on brass one's the pin is mild steel for strength I suppose?

Got stainless so hoping the centre pin is as well

But the official govt approved gassing of Badgers in their sets is perfectly ok? ;)

What goes around comes around 👍👍👍

The trouble with the piano hinges you get these days is the centre pin ,thay rust out fast

Errrr ... rivets :oops:

Carpet burns are verry painful 😂😂😂

Not all D2s had ACE, so calling it a "non-original conversion" is stretching things a wee bit. Put it this way it wouldn't bother an insurance comapny nor an MOT tester.

Have you got some nice fancy nuts and bolts or screws to hold the piano hinges with? ;)

Bathroom men turned up, dug the newly laid floor up and are now levelling it up ready for another new floor Not plucked up the courage to cut my bonnet yet

I think it is more as a result of: a) Pushing the mini back and forth to park it in at the kerb yesterday. b) Clambering up & down under the car to effect the temp repair. I have ordered the hanger rubbers and once I have measured the diameter...

I think the old trucks were hinged in three places because with just one the headlamps would obstruct opening the hood, problem is it's got to be at least one in the middle and jiggle opening it or go all the way with three. Vent is a problem...

Yikes, I can see exactly why the bonnet lump would be a problem. I have seen kit cars with a bonnet hinge on one side, but many also, like the one on my Marlin, which is a one piece you have to take off each time. Can you not hinge it at the...

We has gotted neebs coming over for dins tomoz so today W has gone out to do lots of errands and a hospicle visit, pre-op for her injections in her fingas. So I am on dusting, polishing and vacuuming duties, plus hosing out the downstairs bog. I...

I take it you mean a long central cut followed by a piano hinge?!!! My fingers are all crossed for you!!!:):):)

Mornin Suns a shinin, birds a tweetin, grass a growin, what's not to like ? 😊 Still no sign of bathroom fitter, man from council says fitter is ill 🤔:confused: Might cut ma bonnet and hinge it today Stay focused all :)

Fanks Dips a Nippo. Is both sides, I even switched left to right etc. Luckily it's still in warranty (just) so they're on to the garridge this mornin.

Is this on one side of the car or both? When yer gorra dim bulb it is likely to be a loss somewhere. As above a worn relay contact. Loose fuse. Try pulling it out the fuse to see iffit grips like the others. If the bulb moves about and its ok in...

Morning All. :D A poor sleep due to a painful right knee (see: Crawling under cars in the street). :( Nice Sunny start here. :) Have a good day! :D

Can only sympathise. Recently I get painful knees from kneeling on them even on carpet. The only way to avoid it is to use one of those cushioned mats, which are a pain but there you go. Age is not fun.:(

Nuts gone over nite. Not put any more out. Waiting to he if he climbs me fence so eye knows which squirrel it tis.

I dug into this and this is what it came up with. Basically the only humane way to do it is to bash them over the head or body with something. Any sort of humane trap is seen as cruel, and any sort of poison is a "last resort". From UFAW: "It...

Hi. Maybe i'm the man but i used to respect my own decision written with red in my signature ;) Ok, i'll make an exception seing your pain... seems that you bypassed the fuel pump relay and the circuit to pump is OK, now bridge the main...

I had a similar result ☹️

Bad earth or dampness in the leccy connectors.

Mate got a big one cornered it jumped right over his shoulder that's when we started wearing scarfs and goggles 😣😣

Valid piece of advice…saw a terrier give a rat the good news then flick it away and it landed on the back of the old gaffers neck between his donkey jacket and neck..he flipped oot 🤣

Yer a poor welder but a superb grinder. 🤣 🤣
