blacksofstichill Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Halfway there! Livin' on a prayer! Never thought of that when I wrote that! Classic Bon Jovi!  Cheers!

Aye we had a bit of trouble finding a new grinding wheel for it, in the end got one shipped in from the States. They're good solid machines, parts can be a problem but it's worth the hassle for sure. Black and Decker stuff was definitely well made back then! I've just noticed the pics aren't showing, it seems I've exceeded my bandwith for the month, Hopefully this will sort itself out come next month, I obviously take too many pics of each job!
