In my defence that lump hammer belongs to the client. Useful as back up though. I tend to use dead blow hammers these days with lead shot inside.

Looks rather heavy, hope you had ya weetabix.

It was massively heavy, obviously 1935 era lads were made of stronger stuff.

Looks like you've got your hands full there Lee....won't bother asking about a small lathe job then!! We pass a little grey fergie for sale, turning off the A5 at that place I cant pronounce or spell, and always wish I had the time, space, money, skills, equipment and permission to have at it!! Enjoy!

I could do with a grey Fergie at my place.

I find working on something old school a relief from the crap we look after in the garage. A few of the main stealers around here won't do head gasket jobs as it's easier to drop in a new engine.

The difference between a fitter and a mechanic, if the scanner don't tell them whats wrong they have chance, no hope of seeing a "technician" with a screwdriver handle to their ear finding the source of the clatter.

I will use a screwdriver to locate a noise but it won't find a misfire at 3240rpm on light throttle while sticking a yellow rose in your right ear on a 15 deg day. You get my point.
  With this technology comes a whole new world of learning and the customer expects much more.

Brother of mine has a Pico scope, he actually measures the spark profile to see if it's rich or weak.
I prefer old school clockwork engines not much needed to get them going.

I had an XL650 Dominator for 18months or so, wish I still had that bike what a giggle, due to the single cylinder low down grunt chain & sprockets took a battering and back tyres didnt last very long but fronts were OK as the wheel was hardly ever on the tarmac !!! LOL
