What you got today

Hammer forge or something like that?? air powered?

25kg air hammer I have wanted one since I was a kid. I wanted a 250kg but I’m not complaining. I was making different pry bars and chisels for a while then something happened and I couldn’t make them any more. Now it is time to get back into it.

I have a neighbor who makes all sorts of things using blacksmithing skills who has something similar.

When I was 12 or 13 I forged my first knife out of a coil spring in an open fire and used a bit of pipe to blow the fire to heat the steel. The anvil was a block of wood with a slot and 100mm angle iron. On my 16th birthday I got given a 330lb anvil. It is small compared to my 5cwt. I worked in a blacksmith shop for a few years they had a 1ton Massey. Some days I would be the striker and swing a 14lb hammer all day. Swinging a hammer in my own shop for a living is a dream come true.

Happy for you, grin. Can’t wait to see your result.

I got a Wuben Knight X-O today.


The magnet is more than strong enough

I lost the tint lottery wigh the LH351D but the bezel unscrews (it was very finger tight) and the emitter is easily replaceable

Thats an interesting light, and i suspect that the emitter will be replaced soon :wink:

Fireflies Stainless Steel AA format. Nichia 231B 4000K SW40 D220 R9080.

Probably lying in stock the past 3 years. The wrapping was yellowed.
Probaly an old Enogear.

I really like it. Form factor, weight, LED, cost.

Comparing it to my ToolAA2 Ti ( Cree XPL HD LED ). I prefer the Nichia.

Got this double multifunction EDC V3 model from Ali Express for about US$13.50 with free shipment from China to Singapore in just two weeks.

I also have ordered four single multifunction EDC keychain flashlights, each costing only US$4.30 from Ali Express.

The double EDC is similar to the single EDC, with similar functions but more lumens (claimed 900 lm!).

Wurkkos TS10 MAO. 6000k. Blue aux.

Liking it!

A copper beauty arrived 2 days ago.

I always wanted to have a sangean portable radio, but they’re kind of expensive…

I think they were US$42 when I bought mine

I have a Sangean clock radio that I've hardly used.

It has excellent feedback on Amazon, but I don't use it.

Wurkkos TS10 Brass.

Well done.

I like my brass lights. D4V2, E07, GT Nano, Brass horse, FM10, FW3B …

I got some Eneloops from Amazon today.

They weren't on sale, but I couldn't find a better deal on Amazon or eBay and I was low on AA batteries.

It’s better than my Best Buy store, $26 locally.

That’s still an acceptable price for Eneloops.

Is it really pushing out 2,000 lumens or is it over advertising?
