Re: Van repairs Sorry, I had the instruction manual upside down.  P1020417 by Robndaisy, on Flickr  P1020415 by Robndaisy, on Flickr that's a shame,  P1020419 by Robndaisy, on Flickr quite deep too,  P1020421 by Robndaisy, on Flickr a really decent anvil flamed by some idiot, painted up a a garden ornament and then put in an auction house where muggins here bought it years ago. Oh well, it'll have to do 'cos I can't see any way of properly dressing up the face.  P1020416 by Robndaisy, on Flickr This monster needs a leaf spring.  P1020424 by Robndaisy, on Flickr I don't think there's gonna be enough room to fit everything in here. These flamers on Youtube over in the states always seem to have loads of space for their 'shops'. I'm not bitter...just twisted .

Re: Van repairs Yes i know that problem always the need for space....Should that type of vise not be able to turn on that pointed food?
For the anvil couldn't it be milled a bit, or is it to hard?

Re: Van repairs The leg on the vice transmits the force to a socket or floor plate. That's so there's no chance of damaging the thread. Ideal when you're walloping hot metal etc. I've set it up just for the photo  . The anvil's face is nice and hard, just as it should be, it could be surface ground. I won't spend the money though.

Re: Van repairs Right, after this it's back to the vehicles .  P1020425 by Robndaisy, on Flickr  P1020427 by Robndaisy, on Flickr Luckily , I found some stone slabs in the woods, almost perfect for an outdoor Smithy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9E5ULIt5SLUTen minutes later it was snowing.

Re: Van repairs When I take the van to work, I have to turn a sharp 90* uphill in first gear. The driveshafts do not like this at all! On the way down I can slip the clutch which helps. I can't see a way of fitting modern driveshafts because of the existing gearbox output  Hope I'm explaining this correctly so it makes sense! What are my options
