What's your Favourite Gadget?

[Potstubsdustbins]

I am not saying I like them but two must have's in my job are............... a mobile phone with e-mail otherwise letting agencies will not employ you. When a problem comes in they just e-mail you and forget ..... it's your problem then.

A flue gas analyser 10 years ago very few chaps had one because of the expense, now days you cannot install/service a high efficiency boiler with out one.

I've given this a great deal of thought & the very best "gadget" would be ................ Mrs.BB

Its not a gadget as such but i wish someone would invent a way to make new plastic bags easier to open, even printing "Top" on black bin bags would help, I am always trying to open the bottom. As for opening the top, when you find it, if one edge was crinckled a bit it would prevent the suction seal that hold them
together or is it static? Either way if we can put men on the moon i am sure we can crack this silly problem.

Thank You BB

Just wanted to say thanks for the heads up, I've just ordered this one:

7 Ton Duocut Electric Log Splitter With Stand

[Noosner]

Ooh, I love gadgets. My favourite is always the one I've just bought! In fact I ordered a Nutribullet today. I held out for a while but two different friends have been raving about theirs... any of you Grapes got one and if so, what do you think?

Best tried and tested gadgets are my bread maker and power drill/screwdriver. Wouldn't be without either.

Least used gadget? My ice cream maker.

I know it's a bit late in the day Noos but did you see this one?

7 Ton Duocut Electric Log Splitter With Stand

Duocut is asimple but brilliant idea & the stand saves all the backache

Two things to remember bud ......

Open the "thumb screw" before use (if you are anything like me you will never close it again & the plastic bit of it WILL get broken when the first bit of wood hits it, but it's not a worry as it really doesn't need closing unless you are transporting it over a large distance while it will be rocked about)
Always slacken off the ram stop after the last use, firstly it protects the chrome finish on the ram, secondly it saves the motor run-up on the next splitting session ....

Mine has easily split well over 12 tons of wood & is still going strong

Cheers BB, I take it you re talking about the bleed screw.

Cheers BB, I take it you re talking about the bleed screw.

Yep, it's the only design weakness I've found & will be looking into making a more robust one over the winter, will happily you one post out when sorted

[Bigmallly]

Cheers BB, I'll let you know how I get on with it as I have a mountain to split.............not literally a mountain...........just a big pile of logs.

Just lick your fingers Bill, rub top of the plastic bag (assuming you can find it ) between your fingers and hey presto!
