Good job as usual Bob       As I was looking at them photos I was thinking .......I bet you were a nightmare as a kid taking everything you got your hands on apart lol, much to your parents annoyance I bet .......I can just picture the scene, dad comes back from work , the locks out the front door and in bits , no tea ready , the cookers in bits , he thinks............... I will watch the tv while he rebuilds the cooker .....no chance ................tv's  in bits too............. go for a shower ......... give me strength pipes sticking out the wall............... for gods sake ....take the tools off that bloody kid   
  I bet your love of DTI's came from dismantling the living room clock too 

 Cheers Mick

well when your faveret chuck starts to get stiff you can bring it back to life a parentley you can by replasment jaws for the jacobs chuck but i think if the jaws need replasing then the chuck is destend to the bin    well  mick did i tell you that i was conseved in a car me dad had me mam out for driving lesons sum lesen that was any way and i was born in a car so that mite have sumthing to do with me fixing things

Here's a refurb kit for a Jacobs 33. If anyone want's a set for the cost of post and a beer drop me a line, I have half a dozen or so sets for No.33's and a few for other sizes - need to check.
