Grease
Can someone please tell me where I put the hi-temp grease I got a couple of years ago? Cos I can't find it, and I do need it.
I really need to create a new 'what's where' list on computer. That worked very well... until it all got rearranged & not recatalogued. NT |

NT It's in the fridge, next to the garage key that you lost 12 months ago. Nah! It's on the shelf next to the valve re-grinder suction cup stick that you used after replacing that head gasket. -- Tim Lamb |

I have a very big garden gate with two padlocks. I lost the spare keys 12 months ago. I still have nightmares about this. |

I don't know why it was there as the chuck itself was still fixed to the plaster mixing paddle. Owain |

Owain I found myself without mine today, due to using a small drill I don't use much. Stuck a nail in the hole in the side of the chuck, and used a screwdriver into the teeth to tighten it. Worked fine. NT |

My pillar drill and chuck-key stay together on the bench; my mains and battery hammer drills have keyless chucks; so only the add on chuck for my SDS drill has a key that moves around and I make sure that that goes in the accessory box within the drill's case so that I can always find it. Back when my mains and battery drills had keyed chucks, I used a plastic strap to keep the key permanently attached to the mains lead and the I always do that. It's mad watching people spend so much time looking for their chuck keys. But somehow they got separated. NT |

I used that method before getting a proper keyless chuck, it's a matter of using a sufficiently loose grip, then giving the chuck a squeeze after you've let go the trigger ... |

Lonely Psychopathic Senile Ozzie Troll Alert!

Speed, the auto-contradicting senile sociopath, blabbered, again: I always do that. It's mad watching people spend so much time looking for their chuck keys. But somehow they got separated. Just the Alzhiemers, nothing to worry about. You'll be losing your clothes soon and wandering around starkers.

I guess it is simply the passage of time. I don't expect a "GoodGrips" version any time soon. :-( Chris -- Chris J Dixon Nottingham UK @ChrisJDixon1 Plant amazing Acers. |
