Bodge yes, but maybe there was some thinking behind it...how to give a toilet a hot flush;-)) Wotan

A fair assumption might be pilot error? Wotan

It's still available, it was developed for glueing the Mosquito twin engined fighter bomber together. The formaldehyde is a bit nasty if you don't wear gloves. Wotan

We have new technology to thank for the demise of CD'S, Photographs, Analogue TV, casette tapes, Vinyl records, and a host of other things, everything these days is digital and ephemeral, Books are rapidly going that way too with electronic downloads, we are being subdued by this technology and...

Aerolite 306 is probably the best glue you can get, stronger than the parent wood. Wotan

There is one thing certain...it could have been a lot worse, I imagine the orientation of the crane's jib may have contributed to the helicopter's pilot not seeing it till the last minute, too late to take avoiding action. Condolences to the familys of the deceased, and speedy recovery to the...

If you are just going through plaster - breeze block, then I would mark a circle oversize and then chain drill, and knock the centre out, finish off by cementing a tube of the right diameter into the hole. Wotan

As them if it can be taken as time in lieu? there must be occasions when you could use time off mid week, look on it as hours banked, not actual cash. Wotan

Every computer I have scrapped, has had it's hard drive removed, taken into my workshop and had several half inch hole's drilled through the platter stack, then put back in the machine. Try recovering data from that! likewise same treatment to floppy discs. Wotan

A length of scaffold tube has always worked for me, slipped over the breaker bar take up the lost motion, then quickly jerk in the direction to undo the nut never failed yet! Wotan

Is it a Smiths movement with a short pendulum? Well thats progress, as long as you are careful with your adjustment, the bob needs to be lowered to slow the clock down, try increments of half a turn at a time of the rating nut, then observe over 24 hrs, it can take a while to get the setting...
