Anyway, go look at it and I notice it's got a bracket missing and a few bolts.
The guy says "So you're telling me I can't sell it?"
I said "Yes you can still sell it, but I'm not interested thanks"
He says "Well do you just want to take it anyway, I need it gone from the shed"
I said,... well you know what I said.
I went to the recycle yard on the way home, picked up some 5mill steel plate and welded myself up a bracket. Job done.
Just got to fit it now.

Welds aren't great, going to grind down and try again.

Better wind the welder voltage up a bit

Yeah, looks a littlr chitty-chitty bang-bang.
Make sure they penetrate both pieces well.
