Nozzles

As its been raining most of the afternoon I hid myself away in the garage, fired up the lathe, and made up the 4 nozzles for my hub flushing system.

I'm really pleased with how well they are atomizing the water.

I’ll simply drill holes in the backplates, push them through to the shoulders and use the hose Jubilee clipped on the back to hold them in place.

Thanks Neil.

This sort of project is my way of relaxing as it’s totally different to my day job.

Although your comment has reminded me why I registered 4N Solutions ltd.
I really should start trying to do something else I could get paid for, rather than just for myself.

Yes

Knocked it up out of some old fridge magnets connected to a 12V battery.

How you gonna get the fender & trampoline in the hub ?

Seriously this is greta stuff - I'm very jealous. I wish I had the space & gear to do this stuff in my spare time - I know what you mean about allowing you to relax - but if you keep making this stuff you'll never get to use the boat !

It's amazing what the young mind can remember compared to those of us with a few more years under our belts.

Yep, £1200 worth for £10.20 plus my Diesel to Bristol and back.
Oh, and a lot of grief with an ebay seller who doesn't know how to put a reserve on an auction

Mrs Nasher is a qualified trampoline instructor, which she does one evening a week.

We never thought we'd be able to have a 'Proper' piece of kit for the garden, but this guy was absolutly determined not to get any bad feedback.
I didn't feel sorry for him because he was so rude to me, I only left him Neutral feedback, which cost him over £1100
