Wtd: 101 Starting handle and jack handles.

Lee_D muttered summat about:

Make that two sets :o)

If anybody is so inclined they can borrow mine and make up some replicas.

Tom Woods uttered summat worrerz funny about:

I'm sure I've got a series II/III one... wonder if I could get it extended. Will have to check if the ends are the same and extend it in the middle I'd guess so it'll still fit in the clamps at the ends.

Lee

You know where i am if you want to borrow em and check it out!

Having tried to start a 101 on the handle, i can't see why anybody would actually have any use for them except as an ornament for the front.....

Alex

Take it out of gear first Alex.

saw a GS in black-and-green today. now what was the number... dunno. something that I thought would be memorable and save me writing it down.

handy for prodding muddy puddles to see if there's a bottom. if the bottom's further down than the length of the handle, you've got problems.

Alex, we did this conversation over five years ago... (When I was looking for a starting handle).

I have since done it - not nice, but it isn't that hard. The hardest part is getting the sodding handle to connect with the crank (odd, I don't usually have that problem...)

Graham Holding:

Starting handle 10 quid

Jack handle 10 quid

You really can't miss Graham at any of the shows - he looks like Father Christmas (big beardy wierdy chap - nice though).

Oh I never had a problem getting it in the hole, you just have to look underneath (or stand on a mirror) and aim it carefully. It's just once you've got it all the way in, it's rather stiff and requires much effort to obtain smooth reciprocal movement. It does, however get easier as you put more effort into it. You'd be surprised that once you get into the rhythm of it and just as you're beginning to enjoy the experience it goes off like a rocket, resulting in a great sense of relief and pleasure, leaving you happily panting away......

Alex

He did have quite a few - dunno what he has left. He does usually go to Eastnor - generally takes a Pinkie to show off his stand.

Julian Clary is thataway alex ===>> :-)

With odd bumps on the end to engage the screw.

Tom Woods muttered summat about:

Now there's a bumper sticker!!

What do you think they could sell for?

Where you been, by the way?
