Thanks Norm,

I had pretty well figured as much and been perusing the thread chart on the wall at work. With spanner sizes I hope they don't use crazy dimensions like 13/64" and the like. Thought the AF imperials would fit.

No worries Kye, I understand the value in conserving Eric seeing as we don't seem to have another.

I love the garden ornaments inspecting the tools.
A bit similar to the gnomes...

Hi Jack,

Yes the colour sche!e was almost 'meant to be'. I measured up the clearance between the handle base and when at Bunglings looked for a box (with the trusty tape measure) that would fit. Lo and behold, the orange crate/bin was just the right size, right colour and right price! My daughter even liked the colour!! If necessay I can actually bolt the bin to the engine mounting ring, just need some holes in the bin's base.

The garden ornaments were here when I arrived and are very interested in anything new that appears in 'their' domain. They may yet do more inspections.

I did notice Rota-Rola's gnome fan club too!
