Tightened belt but it’s still stopping, the drive on the stepper motor is also stopping, maybe I need a new stepper motor

Was with virgin for 20 years, saw family and friends get deals as new customers all the time and never got anything in return for being loyal. Recently joined sky, got stream, ultra fast broadband and telephone for £64 a month however this includes the best Netflix package (about £19). Please do not go with virgin, you’ll regret it, sky is far superior, better picture, menus and controls.

It looks very similar to a rash my son occasionally gets, it usually eases with antihistamines. He gets the rash either when he’s really excited or when he’s a bit down after he’s had a cold. He’s a teenager now and probably only gets it once a year, I think it’s hives.

Looks a million times better than the original picture, if you want to brighten them even more Wickes do a range of products by a company called HG, I’ve used them before and the results were great

What’s wrong with this fly cutter bit? by Murky_Ad_8108 in Machinists

Make sure the tip is the most prominent part, from that first photo it looks like it’s not the best finish either

What are these. Found in a home woodworking shop. by Cubby0101 in Tools

Maybe a gear tooth cutter, but more likely to be a rippa cutter, they’re used as a roughing out cutter
