OT - if you don't use it for 2 years you don't need it

[David.WE.Roberts]

Needed to shape the edge of some MDF the other day and so got out my B&D router.

Then I realised that the last time I can remember using it was 2003/2004.

Well, I knew it would come in useful some day!

When I realised I hadn't used my router for 3 years, I made a clamp-on bracket to fit it onto my lathe as a toolpost grinder... Used a bit more frequently since!

Umm.. grinding grit doesn't do the slides much good:-(

I have the same thing with meccano bits. Fixed the curtain rail with it over Xmas.

90% of the stuff in my garage is rubbish. The difficulty is knowing which is the 10% I should keep

That's simple - whatever you throw out! ;)

I had to think about that :-)

Agrred - but when grinding it's covered with an oily bedsheet and anyway has Posh aluminium way covers built in so you can't actually see the ways...

And you'll find a use for it when the bin wagon's turned round the corner and it's too late.

I last used my router to make a box fox my router bits.
