Images of items I have purchased (except trainers [no feet pics])

New (to me) training wheels for the Kuota, a second hand but excellent condition pair of Mavic Ksyrium Elites.

I now own 5 bikes including this one, but this is my first proper carbon "racing" bike, which we purchased for my wife after her racer was in a collision with a car. We knew this was a bit big for her when we bought it, but she wanted to try a bit bigger frame anyway and we thought once her other bike is up and running again I could see how I like it. Will be taking it to the Brownlee Triathlon Centre at the weekend for me to do a few laps.

Excuse the scaffold, house sitting for father-in-law while our house purchase goes through, which we just found out an hour ago is now set for next Friday.

A spot-welder for making up/repairing 18650 battery packs.


...and returned next working day lol! Useless POS won't weld, it doesn't have the output power. Investing in a KWeld kit instead at 3x the price - but I know that will work. Sometimes you get lucky with cheap Chinese junk, other times it really is junk..
 
Partly purchased this together with my mrs as a family/dog car.

She's over the moon coming from an ageing 1 series as am I, the leather is really, really nice. It'll be a nice winter car for us both as I think the M3 will be SORN'd in the colder months.

Cute little garages. What goes between them, path to the back yard?



Ok you eject a passenger, I'll target them with a missile. Sorted!

Hmmm....

Some sneaky ****** has nicked your pedals m8!
 
KWeld setup to replace the **** Chinese one I returned to Amazon. 3D printed my own case and added a plug and socket so footswitch can be disconnected. Total cost near
£300 by the time the LiPo battery and charger arrive.

Always wanted one of these just had no idea what they were. What is it? Do I need one?
 
New to me car:







Wasn’t the exact car I was after, but got it for an amazing deal, paying a few thousand pounds less than market price due to family member falling ill.


Head unit being upgraded tomorrow to iDrive 6.


Today, it’s been cleaned, clay bar’d, liquid crystal.

lol, only if you need to make up battery packs - it welds nickel strip onto them to connect in series or parallel. Mainly for 18650 batteries used in powerwalls etc., solar power, sometimes RC models. I've just taken delivery of about 35 old laptop battery packs (about 200 batteries in total) and am disassembling them and testing the 18650 Li-ion batteries inside. Most are still OK, it only takes one to go bad and the pack is tossed out. Cheap way of getting lots of batteries.

Oh, another use is for repairing batteries for power tools, you can take them apart and replace the bad cells - or all of them.
