Thanks Scott. I always look forward to reading your comments. For some reason, your thoughts mean a little more to me than most. Thanks again Scott!! :-)
Hi again Pete, talked to you last evening and woke up this morning to the video. To an old guy like me the technology is still amazing. I remember when a “long distance “phone call an hour long to a place 40 miles away would have cost as much as driving there. Now we can communicate with someone on the other side of the world as much as we want for a small flat fee each month. I chuckled about the curry comment as I did have a curried chicken meat pie on the road trip with Steve and Nick to Dave’s place. I probably would have resorted to the cutting torch to cut down the cutting edge. Main thing is job done well. I think when it comes time to sell the purchaser can be confident he is getting a good machine.
Hi Geoffrey, I also would have gone for the cutting torch if I had one! To be honest, I do actually have an oxy' kit, but the hoses are rotten and I struggle to justify paying the rent on the bottles given how little I use them. I have vivid memories of waiting until after 8pm to get the cheaper rate for the long distance calls from when I was a kid. As always, it was great to have a chat and catch up.
@@pete-mate3524 I’ve owned my own tanks since I got out of school. After helping my neighbor as a teenager and saw what you could do with torch it was one of the first things I bought! I’ve since bought extra tanks as always seem to run out when store is closed. But no, I don’t use it as much anymore and oxygen and acetylene have gotten ridiculously expensive. I use propane for heating and cutting and propane is cheap to fill out of my bulk tank for house.
Informative video as always mate . I learn many things from you Pete . Just want you to know and say thanks ! Scott 🌵
