| 380029 | 2005-08-10 08:16:00 | Jen, go easy on the hormone therapy, you'll be wanting a shed with a bench and vice next ;) Besides, I'm sure you make some of these other blokes feel totally inadequate already :rolleyes:Phooey :p I don't mind getting my hands dirty and giving things a go. Don't ask why I needed a two-tonne hydraulic jack recently for a job around the house ... ... actually a 3-tonne jack would of been better, it was leaking a wee bit at the end :rolleyes: |

| 380031 | 2005-08-10 08:25:00 | You guys are really upsetting me with this thread. But it's not your fault... I bought Mr Laura a Black & Decker cordless drill a couple of birthdays ago - after lots of hints. ("Yes, I know I've got a powerful drill, but it's old & it's not cordless & you should see what xxx down the road can do with his handy one..." etc) And then the battery got mislaid. And now the drill sits useless in a shed. Like Jen, I quite fancied drilling some holes, but I gather a new battery costs nearly the price of a new drill? So waaaaaahh! |

Pity I didn't know anyone with one that I could borrow. Hmm ... although the 5-tonner might of escalated the possible damage risk a tad exponentially. I think having an electric drill is like having a new pair of secateurs, you wander around looking to see where else you can use it. :rolleyes: |

Anyway, I can see a way through this little bit of confusion we appear to be experiencing, you want to swap medication with me Jen :D |

| 380038 | 2005-08-10 22:10:00 | Steady on chaps - drills and sheds aren't for that sort of stuff :eek: What you needed Jen was a high-lift jack . Much more useful than an hydraulic jack . . enjoythedrive . com/content/?id=9685" target="_blank">www . enjoythedrive . com These wonderful tools can be used as a winch or a clamp/vice and you can lift stuff too . I recently used mine to push part of a brick wall back into place . My dear old mum tried to demolish her garage while backing the car out . :help: |
