Title: Re: dimple die Post by: markju on December 10, 2014, 11:15:27 PM Spent what seemed like monthes of my life as an apprentice using a fly press to make holes like that. Simple tooling and every time it punched through I had to wrestle the steel sheet off it. And me only weighing about eight stone at the time with the upper body strength of a three year old! :)
Title: Re: dimple die Post by: trev on December 11, 2014, 01:50:00 PM I like looking in holes,but not as much as hiding behind trees,does anyone else,or have I finally gone completely bonkers. :(
Title: Re: dimple die Post by: morrag on December 11, 2014, 02:49:52 PM The hole part aint so bad Trev, you could perhaps form a club with Andy! ;D..but not sure about the tree hiding, look what happened to Red Riding Hood, can't be too careful, so best give that part a misss, unless your related to David Attenborough mebee......................

RIP dog! Title: Re: dimple die Post by: andyrennison on December 26, 2014, 12:30:42 AM Dogs dig holes
