Whats happening, is Chug having one??
If so I need to get my affairs in order... get a will done etc.. hahaha
What is the theme this year?
Any one building anything to demo? Besides all the closet arsonists coming out the wood work with their contraptions!
I am looking out making a man sized turk burner.... to char may bangers on.
Will this year's event (providing Chug decides to have one this year) include ladies wear and any 3d printed trumpets?
Any one have a Bosch IP working/mot working that we could have a play with?
Answers on a post card please ;D
-
I'll bring my now-dismantled Bosch IP, fascinating bit of kit :)
-
Bequeath me your Hilux. I promise I won't help anyone kill you.
-
Would like to see that Tony!
-
You'd better wear your tin nickers, knighty's back on the road, I think, so he might be there again.
Bring y'posh frock and high heel trainers, there's talk of drag racing for the evening entertainment after sufficient rocket fuel has been taken onboard.

We could run a computation on how fast we can put it back together,
or better still how many pints of rocket fuel it takes before we can't.

The only drag racing will be which of the two old drag queens can catch the young agile Womble first.
-
I would like to make one of these and run it off veg:

-
I've got a friend that made one of them. I wonder if he still has it.
-
That engine should wake up all of Chug's neighbours :)
I certainly hope we do have one this year. Tash and I will be childless for the weekend as Alicia will be staying with my parents so will be great to get away.

It hasn't surfaced for a while, but somewhere around the village is a photo of me in a blond wig, short black and white PVC mini dress and thigh length, snake skin boots.
Ahhh ... Julian the happy years!

I knew there was something about you but couldn't put my finger on it, be careful when piss taking in the future.
Will anyone else be coming out of the closet?

I wouldn't let you!

Will see you all there!

First weekend of July again Chug (ie Fri 4th to Sun 6th) ??
-
Nice one Chug, will book some time off work.
see all the usual suspects there, plus some new faces with any luck, we don't want too much inbreeding do we.
-
Right, that's me summer holidays booked then.
-
The Largo has curtains, it'll be like camping in style :)
Highlight of the year is the BBB!
-
Top man Chug. Looking forward to it.
The regulars will know, but I think you should make it obvious to those who've not attended before that everyone is expected to make a contribution towards your expenses.
I'll leave the amount for you to announce ... I know costs have gone up and the contribution has stayed the same for at least 3 years.
-
Bugger!!
Same weekend as Waddington airshow...again!! :'(
-
with any luck, as announced at the start of the thread, we will have our own air show! ;D

Let's hope for weather like last year. I'll try not to spurtle blood all over the place this time......

Got a bit of food stuck in my throat. Gave Tony and two other fellas a bit of a fright.
Shot most of it into the bushes.
I've got summat wrong with my throat. It happens......
-
We are going to come in the Audi this year so hopefully I wont have to spend half a day under my car trying to fix it for the journey home like I did with the RangeRover last year.
Hopefully Nige will be there with his chemical emporium again as I need some more Sulphuric Acid, centre feed towel rolls and caravan toilet fluid.
Tash will no doubt supply cakes and curry again :)
-
Looking forward to seeing the Audi. Sounds like nice kit.
-

Looking forward to towing the Audi out when it rains.
-
I'll be there....circumstances permitting.
I'm sure that my supplier will be as accomodating this year so long as the orders are somewhat similar to last years. I'll get a price list together and then start a seperate thread both here and on the VOD.

Please leave that pleasure to me, there'll be a certain irony about it.

Chug, as per the last few years I'm happy to turn up early and help setup.

Need to get the Wagon finished for July then.
Chug can you make the access wider........

Call that a fright, you'll have to try harder than that. You'll be telling us you're making actual bio next, now that might make me double take ;)

Ouch, that is not friendly boys.
I bought an Allroad Quattro rather than a Passat estate for the very reason of pulling the caravan off of grass pitches. If it struggles I will be very dissapointed
It has a decent set of Michelin M + S tyres on it so I have every confidence the waiting Disco owners club will miss their prey.

It will be fine Jules, I speak from experience of no less than 6 audi quattros owned over the years, and like you say it won't break down!
-
Not so sure on the Largo getting about the field as it's only the rear wheel drive version, not 4x4. Might not stray right down to the far end of the field this time!

What ever do you mean? I've made lots of Bio, it's just not good enough to use........
-

So in reality you haven't made any bio.
Wvo, methanol and a catalyst DO NOT necessarily equal bio.

In your case bio is a by product so it don't count.

Ok, 2/10 for effort as you did collect the wvo and put it in the tank.

Ok so if I/we can't tow jules out I want first dibbs on pulling the front end off Tony's car.

Might play "spoons" this year....great game that. learnt it on a ski trip years ago, though it can draw blood......anybody up for that? Usual stakes...20lts of good quality raw oil.
Winner takes all.
-
Sounds good to me
-
I'm up for the card game, but will reserve judgment on which game until I know more.

Just thought I would state my intent to attend again this year, I might even bring a tent with me this time. How about I bring a tig welder with me for people to play with?

Great idea, it's the only type of welding l've never really mastered.

If you can gas weld you can probably tig weld. Maybe if anyone needs little welding jobs doing they could bring them along.

Superbe! You can do that bike frame, live!
Actually, needs brazing / wacking.
Don't forget I'll hand over 200L of wvo.
-
If you bring the tig welder I would be really keen to have a go with it. I have tried Mig, gas and arc but am only any good with mig so I expect my results will be rubbish but would be great to have a go.
@Mark, considering I did four days of cutting, replacing and welding on that Disco last year, should get a year or two to get your welding skills up before they are needed.
-
Sorry this is propper welding not suitable for rusty motors!
Jules you are welcome to have a go.

I've found a small hole on the bulkhead inside the o/s inner front wing, nothing to big but something I'll get sorted before it gets to big.
What addjustment do you make to the pump, was it the one on top of the flying souser or inside it ?

Yes Jim you can have a go, seeing as you like talking more than me I will show you how to do it and then you can show everyone else!
-
With all the students lining up to master TIG welding I hope you have a good supply of tungsten.
-

The star wheel and rotating the diaphragm mate. If you take the top of the flying saucer (perfectly fine, only air in there no fuel) you will probably see the permanent pen marks on both the edge of the diaphragm and one one of the points on the star wheel.
I didn't touch the smoke screw or max fuel screws.
I left the wastegate on the turbo alone too. Whilst it's common to up the boost a bit on 200Tdi's, it is not recommended on the 300 (although can be done)
PS, is a flying souser a cross between a UFO and a liverpudlian?
@OakwoodTV, that thought about tungstens did cross my mind. I suspect that a lot will be getting dipped in the weld pool as all of us ham fisted amateurs have a go.
-

Thats how you learn to have a steady hand, you get fed up stopping to sharpen your tungsten all the time!

Yep I recon so, most tutors appoint an apprentice for tungsten sharpening duties, but I like to do my own, no one else gets them right.

Anyone good with electrical stuff wanna build one of these for the BBB?
Quantum energy generator.
http://hopegirl2012.wordpress.com/2014/03/25/qeg-open-sourced/
details here

-
Bob, photoman is the Tesla expert round here.
The question is, Why hasn't every household got one?
-
Limitless power at the BBB, powered by Quantum Energy Generators and other perpetual motion machines - cool
I reckon I need one of those for my caravan, beats a solar panel hands down (especially at night :) )
-
there all belt and no trousers
-
If it's ok for me n the family to attend I've got a two day pass from work. Wifey looking forward to meeting folks. Let me know any costs n donations needed.

Mmmmmmmmmmm, do you really want your family exposed to a bunch of lunatics, some running round in dresses, very late nights and drunkeness?
If you don't mind that then yes you're welcome.
Pm Chug for donation and directions.

@ chug
is there any good fishing pools with over night stay (tents allowed) near the BBB?
-
There is some good fishing not far from me but its only supposed to be season ticket holders that can fish overnight, but you could park your camper nearby and find a spot for some stealth fishin, it's dead quiet at night. http://www.fisheries.co.uk/tring/
-
thx chug
its for my son and maybe a buddy, was going to drop them off and pickup when I went home from yours, they don't mind paying...
will have a look at that link

we've also got miles of canal next to the reservoirs, that is what they were built for to keep it topped up, it's a high point of the grand union canal, downhill to london or birmingham.

You will need to contact Chug by PM for the address, its never posted up as a safety measure, i think dogs are a no-no because of the neighbors livestock but im sure Chug will answer that

Wifey doesn't drink (well maybe a glass of wine) so no joy there.
To be fare I snore quite badly when I'm drunk (as some at the BBB will confirm) so I can't blame her for moaning.

Should be able to come again might even bring a tent, cant weight to see the girl of my dreams ;D

Hows this for a fun activity for the BBB

That looks soooo relaxing.......
-
That's going to take some recovering from!
-
I was thinking we bring one out at around 9pm and call it the vomit commit.
-
You wont catch me on it.
The danger is womble that the vomit could well end up all over your bivvy :o
-
Chunder could be true to his name riding that thing!
I see the tone is set for the BBB as per usual...
-
Well to my knowledge no one has ever chundered at the BBB, considering the amount of alcohol consumed (not forgetting the rocket fuel) at the BBB's it goes to show that we have a sensible (well semi sensible) bunch of guy's and gals that know when enough is enough.
When I say sensible obviously I'm only talking about alcohol consumption, playing with anything combustible is not included in this statement.

Naw we've just got very well developed livers.
Like you say though I am a bit surprised no-one has chundered at a BBB. That said I hardly saw anything of Flo last BBB, apparently as a result of Vince's cider.
Definitely a few interesting combustibles being ignited last year :)
-
I reckon we should try some thermite this year - Photoman is an expert on making it I believe - and see what we can melt through with it.
-
Ooooh thermite!!!! I am all giddy! hahahaha
How do you make it then?
-
A little bit tamer than thermite and we've got lots and lots of glycerin ...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZJnbSwjC0s
-
WARNING the mad Iranian should not under any circumstances be told how to make thermite.

Tried this before. Set fire to the garden I was still living with my parents at the time. :o
-
Well I'm definitely going, flights booked & paid for! The best contribution that I think I can make is a few lbs of Jersey Royals, and if you think that I'm going to pack a frock & high heels for airport security to x-ray, then think again.
Oily.
-
someone who worked on railways lines gave me a 15kg bag of thermite
(they use it to weld the railways tracks together)
it lay around for ages till I tossed it away
wish I'd kept it now
-
It will be good to see you Oily. Not many people fly over to the BBB, that is quite a claim to fame
-
Where are you flying in to? I'm sure some kindly person will be able to arrange transport for you.

Guys, many thanks for the kind offers but I'm hiring a car from Gatwick on the Sunday morning. I actually get in a couple of days before but am popping down to Brighton to visit my (recently divorced) 86 year old mum. Have to be at Gatwick for 0530 on the Monday morning.

Please take note that if that hire car is pe..pet...petr........... you can't bring it within 100yards of chugs field without being lynched.
At least it'll take the heat off of me though.

You're only coming from Jersey, I'll be traveling 1500miles to get to the BBB and not a rented car in sight.

Now that's dedication.
Talking of dedication, wasn't that sung by another trumpeter.
-
I've cut the grass once already the other week and will go over it again this w/end, so just a bit of strimming left and some trimming of a few bushes left to do, so we're nearly ready.

The card game is usually Saturday night as not everyone can make Friday.
As long as it's nothing more complicated than Snap I'll be joining in this year, I've got me lump of lard ready or I might just sqeeze 20ltrs out of the fat Womble.

Billy no mates yet again, I'll never get rid of the crap I've accumulated over the years.

You can use the wombles tree bucket (that is 3 Irish buckets!) to lob them at him!

I very definitely will not be attending the BBB.
One of the tribal elders has slipped the mortal coil, so will be burying her on Saturday.
I'm in a friggin impossible situation, something's gotta give, and unfortunately, it's going to have to be the BBB.
-
Sorry to hear of your troubles mate, family comes first.

Condolences, sorry to hear that. Shame about the BBB but you have to get the priorities right.
-
Thanks for the condolences.
I'm not particularly upset about it all. There's 168 hours in a week, and at the moment, I've got pressing engagements for all of them.
I need some Methanol bad, which is a bit annoying. I've got enough liquid veg for a while, and can get some more if needs be.
I may do a day trip up to London and get some from Basic while I'm at it, when things quieten down a bit.
-
That's a shame, always good to see you at the BBB. Next time perhaps.
-
By the next BBB, all the Grandparents should be safely tucked away. Two more to go, and they are really dangling by a thread...........
-
GM gonna miss you at the BBB and sorry to hear your news dude...
-
GM gonna miss you at the BBB and sorry to hear your news dude...
I was gonna bring them gas bottles. Never mind, another time, they're still here.
-
Very sorry to hear that GM, look after the rest of the family while they need some support.
There will be another BBB I'm sure.
-
Family comes first Andrew, and next year is the 10th year of bio buddies gathering in my field, so there's gotta be one innit!
-

-

I will get there :)
-
How about live updates for those of us that can't attend?
-
I've attended...I could only manage a brief visit this year due to on going issues. Arrived at about 2pm and left at 4.15pm. How I wish I could have stayed longer.
I left just as Arash was about to loose some fingers on his turbo build.
I cringed when I saw Ian (redsailor) sharpening a drill.
1. set angle grinder on full speed.
2. place on angle grinder on the ground and secure it firmly under a foot.
3. Sharpen drill whilst crowd watches in disbelief ;D
I'm going to miss the Saturday night Chase the Ace card game.
Great to catch up with everybody and to meet a couple of new faces...Manfred and Rossey. Nice to bump into Julianf too.
-
It was good to see you Nige, it must have been hard to just come down for a few hours but we all appreciated seeing you. Hopefully the figures all balance for the chemical sales. Shame that Dave could not as been as reliable as your man.
You describe out precision engineering in such a negative way - you left before the best bits - like the turbo backfiring with a thump that Tony heard sitting by the fire and which tried to consume the hair on Arash's arm and face, or propane burning from every leaking orifice - that was far more fun than some drill sharpening
We managed the card game even without you as a croupier. We even had some new blood in the form of the emperor himself and oakwoodtv.
The womble walked away with the prize this year
-
It was good to see you Nige, and thanks for sorting out the chemical delivery.
It's a shame you couldn't stay longer but we understand the circumstances, please give your wife our regards and thoughts.
Remarkably no one fell off their seat during the game, but then Tony couldn't stay for the game either, so maybe that's why.

All I heard from by the fire was
A fairly hefty *WHUMP*
A slightly concerning pause
Giggling
