I've Been Ferreting Again
« on: August 31, 2014, 09:33:24 PM »
OK, more junk viz: long drills I've never found a use for ...  :headscratch:

If you have, or are contemplating, a fetish for long holes here's your chance ...

Top to Bottom:

Firth Speedicut 21/64"
Firth Speedicut 3/8"
ESC 1/2"
ESC 7/16"
Easicut 8.2 mm
Dormer 3/8"
Rossell [?] 5/16"  Funny drill with fluted lands ??
Dormer E
Unknown 15/64"
Unknown 7/32"

I will post UK at my expense but a Donation to Mr. Stilldrillin's Rainbows charity is required.

Otherwise, they are for the big Wheelie Bin in the sky ...  :LittleAngel:

Bit more respect if you don't mind ... the old scrote has just today clocked 70  :old:  :old:

Three-score and Ten and all that ...

Done my shift, if I had any decency [ which I haven't ] I would have handed my kit in and shuffled off ....

So, I'm now officially cluttering up the planet ....   :whoohoo: 


BTW how much did last years effort clock up eventually ??

Dave ... Not a bad effort at all   :cartwheel:  Are you aiming for £3k+ this year ??  :ThumbsUp:

Stuart & Hugh  .. Thank you for the many happy returns bit. I shall endeavour to comply if only to annoy my beneficiaries ... bless 'em ...

Jo .. Alas, your Tax theory doesn't work too well. I am still a taxpayer ...  :'( In fact my annual tax bill is only some 4K less than my State Pensions ... so, if you work it out, the State's contribution to my riotous and profligate lifestyle is some three pints of Marstons and a bag of nuts per diem .. One day, when I'm feeling particularly sarcastic, I may write and thank them ...  :cussing:


Bye  :)

Dave
