Title: D'oh !
Post by: Olds on April 16, 2018, 04:25:16 PM
About a year ago the belt on my electric planer shredded itself and I couldn't find a replacement the right size. Tried many and even tried bodging a belt but no success.
 Today while continuing to clear the garage, I came across the original spares bag containing, two new motor brushes, two new blades, an adjusting spanner and a drive belt. Hooray !  :)
One slight problem though. :(
 I threw the planer in the bin last week and the bin was emptied on Friday. >:(

Typical.

I was having a tidy up and my Mum was being over zealous. She threw away a collection of old remote controls. It wasn't until a couple of months later when I went to play a video  :o (yes I still have many) that I realised my video remote control was one of them!  ::)

I've got about 8 plug-in chargers in a drawer. No idea what any of them fit.
