Just under fifty quid - ? :eek:
Must be a fancy watch - !
The watch stall on Norwich market charges me £4 to change the dags of the various 'standard' watches I take to him. :okay:

Nothing fancy, a Swiss Army watch

Just needs a special tool and the knowledge to take the back off.

I've got a tool box with bike tools (pedal spanner, crank extractor, freewheel tool, lockring spanner, chain whip, chain tool, chain guage, quick link pliers, cable snips, BB spanner, set of common allen keys stuff like that). Aside from that I don't have a lot of tools. Just odds and sods. I'm not a great doer of stuff. I do break garden spades fairly often (London clay) so I have a collection of broken ones.

the most important tool in the workshop - probably the one I use the most you need to sit down and think about what you are doing

i find it interesting where a little bit of tea is often left overnight, it is not tea stained, it is only the part that is temporarily covered in tea

Who needs park tools eh :laugh:

absolutely brilliant - the lot of it - particularly liked the clamp made from old forks
I love home made tools for special purposes but the only one I think I have ever made for the bike was a truing stand

After a lifetime of fixing/restoring cars, motorcycles and bikes, I’ve built quite a collection.

this is my main tool chest

This is my box for cycle specific stuff, BB tools crank removal, chain tools etc.

and this is the tool roll I take to work, just the stuff that for me makes fixing bikes a bit easier.
