My week this week, my workshop videos.

I have one FFP1 mask and it has a valve. A number of years ago, I picked up a couple of boxes of N95 masks. The FFP1 mask is CE marked and the N95 masks are US made and not CE marked. This particular N95 mask doesn't have the exhale valve and is what we wear if/when we go out and about.
The interesting thing that I learned about the N95 masks is that apparently they all incorporate an electrostatically charged layer which permits particulate capture without impacting respiration.

We reuse the masks but isolate them for several weeks between uses.
 
I put my used masks in a net bag and tumble dry them on a hot setting, the net bag stops the rubber straps from being damaged, they are certainly toasty when the come out!

Sunny and hot in East Yorkshire!
 
This week I rebuild the wire feed tensioner on the Socome mig welder, and fit the Eurotorch conversion kit I got from Techarc. Unfortunately the bearings which I need for it did not come till late Friday, so I will be fitting them and testing the welder next week. It worked out very well! please subscribe, like, comment and enjoy!
Phil. Very hot in East Yorkshire!
 
This week I finish the wire feed, test the welder, remove, repair and refit the lid, discover a problem on the Colchester, and we are nearly ready for paint! I bought a MT3 test bar from RDG, which came Friday, no casters yet, but I hope they will come over the weekend, Like, comment, and please subscribe, but above all, enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it!

Hi all,

Some finishing off on the Socome welder, and then onto the Toro wheelhors tractor to continue the new transmission set up, , Friday afternoon, went to help Keith do a tip run and didn't get home till 8-00, hence this video being uploaded on Saturday! I'll explain the disaster next week!
