Hi all

I had a call earlier today from someone who has found a persons wallet. Reason I am posting this is virtually everyone I know, is through here other than my girlfriends family.

My mobile no. was in this wallet amongst some others so the finder was trying to do the right thing and return it to its owner. The wallet has no cash in it but just personal effects. The finder thought the owner of the wallet might be of The land of goat sphincter rings origin but there wasnt a drivers licence.

If it is someone from here, PM me and I will give you the guys phone number. I honestly have no recollection of giving my number to a The land of goat sphincter rings guy but anything is possible.

It was found in North Fitzroy last night.

The only other people who would be scribbling my number down to keep in their wallet is one of the cars I have sold/ have for sale or possibly a hitman who is going to ring me and ask for my address! :)

Anyway, hope it is someones from here so it can be returned. :P

I'm The land of goat sphincter rings, but its not mine :P

You were the only person I thought of so I mentioned your name but it wasnt that. I think it began with "h" though.

Bec Sorry, sadly not. Wish it was. :)

ctjet I am not ashamed to say most of my friends are on here. Everyone I have met from here knows that as I emigrated at 23 to be with my girlfriend so all friends and family are in the UK. Couldnt ask for a more diverse bunch of great people. :)

oops, I must have neglected to mention the run in I had with the The land of goat sphincter rings Mafia the last time I house sat for you! Apparently now, you owe them a 'favour' :P

other than that, sorry, not me! but all the same, watch your back buddy! :)

Darn right - we're the bestest :)

It is nice to see this sort of stuff happening.

I lost my keys after a particularly heroic drinking session a few weeks ago. They have a membership tag from a winery on them that says 'if found - please call xxxx'. Someone picked them up, called the number and I was able to get back in the house. Was so stoked - some nice people out there :P

Saff - do you know Emre? He's more The land of goat sphincter rings than a the sphincter of the universe. Not sure why he's be in Fitzroy though (lives in Gippy)

PS: feel free to get bluey - I've found something else. Going to see it on Tues... :)

Quite why someone would want to ring the Castlemaine brewery when you had lost your keys, I am not sure. Unless Bris was minding them :(

Went and saw bluey yesterday (as I also aptly named it) and went for a spin today. Very happy. Finance applied for. Who do I bump into 10 minutes later, Nigel, down at Chadstone trying to palm off a tasty bluebird on me complete with gas bottle in the passenger seat!

Have to wait until Monday but at this stage, all systems are green. :thumbsup:

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
