1/4 magnetic in the base? Does the red knurled bit just spin on the shaft??
Got a job to beat Snap On T bars with comfy red handles! Dear but worth it .. :bond:

Yeah 1/4 in the base so you can fit anything in there with an adapter.

the T bar does spin in the handle, I know Snap on Is quality too, but this is a joy to use and looks great too. I showed it my brother who rebuilds motocross bikes as a hobby and he was well impressed.

I have a 3/8 drive Snap on Speed brace too which is also one of my favorite tools. I bought it as it reminded me of when I was an apprentice mechanic in my youth I was working as the foreman's junior, he had a Snap on tool box that was bigger than me. I remember using his speed brace to tighten up CVH cam covers on Fords, it was great. Told myself one day I will have a tool collection like this, I'm getting there slowly.

Perfect:)

Very nice.
I envy you.
Being a renter and excessive traveler I can't make a collection like that.

Nice workshop Perfect.

To think my mates take the piss out of me because they think I'm too tidy.

Unfortunately that's all gone to pot recently, partly because my kids are growing up and I now have 4 adult size pushbikes, micro scooters, and all sorts of other shit in the space I use.

Cheers guys, I built it in December last year as my Brother sold his house and unfortunately my bike was in his garage.

I had no choice but to build something, I reinforced and insulated the walls and floors and added more security and locks etc than you can shake a stick at.

I love having my bike at my house now, plus I have power, proper lighting, heating, stereo, mini fridge. etc it is cool, as per usual I got carried away. The good thing about having the power down there is a can keep my battery topped up with my optimizer. I had trouble with my quad bike always going flat in my bro's garage.

I have the heater on down there at the moment and UB40 in the CD player, plus a couple of cans of Carling in the fridge. I'm having a go at the discs tonight, I hope they fit? I'm not feeling too confident, The new ones feel a bit thicker too!

Good for you Perfect(ionist)

Your garage looks fantastic.
Wish I had one, especially like that!:plus:

My bike is parked under the verandah. At least its out of the rain.

Skidmarks make a longer front fender for our bike as well.
I have it fitted to mine and it makes a huge difference.
The whole front fender assembly is less wobbly as well.
I'm pretty sure there are a few pictures of it on here.
Here ya go.
Shouldn't be lazy.

looks good! doesn't it need it too! i read a thread you wrote weeks ago about
the crap off the road coming up into the headstock, I got caught it in a rain shower last week and I couldn't believe how bad it was, it got everywhere.

I noticed you have R&G racing front crash protectors! they look great too, I might order some today.

Perfect:cheers:
