Photos Latest Purchases Thread: v2.0

I found a few 20mm railed ACOG's meant for FAL's (Or L1A1 if you're British >.>) a while back, $450 a piece. Nearly bought one.. Should have, they look the tits.

 

Yeah, the knockoffs are cheap - If you want some reasonable quality knockoffs, the G&P ones are sturdy! Which surprised me a great deal, I remember when G&P were cheap **** to be avoided.

 

Pair of tyres for my car. Hopefully including a voucher for a night in a hotel, which I can use for an event later this year.

 

One of these Galaxy Tab S 10.5

 

...

 

New front mech. Nothing wrong with the current on but fancied the safety of a chain spotter incase it drops the chain

 

Camping goodies:

Wardrobe for clothes


two new lights to see things


Cheap pair of walking shoes:



and a bin:

 

- 22 6*620*2600mm pre-painted MDF wall panels
- Moldings for corners, floor, doorway and ceiling
- Framing for window
- 3l oil-based "noble white" Wood stain
- 3l oil-based black floor Paint
- 1l oil-based white Paint
- Various other painting supplies (brushes, rollers, masking tape...)
- 2 sets of Lego (one for my daughter, and one for my son)
- Wristwatch ("who cares I am late already") - for the missus

Probably more stuff. Went on a bit of shopping spree recently...

 

Cat door for Millie and soon to be Mr Fraggle. Let the ruining of a perfectly good front door commence.



EDIT:

And fitted. Not quite as straightforward as I would like as I suspect I, like most people, would be worried about making too big a hole so you end up with one that is small, so much trimming involved. For the price of these things then a template would be welcome.

 

Now when they get use to running in and out of it, put clingfilm across it and wait for the lolz

 

Err nope.

 

Gossen Luna-Pro F & Asahi Pentax 49mm UV filter.

 

A Yashica 200-AF SLR with a rather nice Kyocera/Yashica 50mm f1.8 lens. Although if I decide to use it on my Canon, I won't have any aperture control

All for the princely sum of two pounds.

 

Finally got around to building a new PC this week after the old one died a death (and being stuck on a netbook for the last couple of months).

• ASUS Sabretooth Mark S;
• Core I5-4690K;
• 8gb Corsair Vengence Pro 1600mhz;
• Corsair H55 All in One cooler;
• Corsair 600watt PSU (I originally re-used my old BeQuiet 550watt PSU but after having the same issue that I had with old C2Duo system I realised this was probably my problem).
• And a Logitech MX Master Mouse (£20 instead of £40 in PC world at the moment).

I'm using the onboard Intel HD Graphics for now (I'm assuming that the onboard GPU is better than my old Radeon HD4830) but I'll upgrade it to something better in a month or so.

oh, and a washing machine (if it ever gets delivered) after my old one decided to flood the kitchen last Sunday


And I also got a White PS4 a couple of months back

 

That's a pretty motherboard...

 

Stripping a bike frame back to raw metal tonight

This is to start it



This is to er "help it along"

 

Best backup phone ever. Fits the 3 major types of SIM (with a little modding), long battery and can take a beating

 

They're not back ups, OK one is but only as a backup to the other.
My BiL is a tree surgeon and these survive long falls quite well apparently
