Home made tyre truer and miniature power supply - Tibbs - 7th-Aug-22

Hi Guy's,

I've made myself a tyre truer by basically copying Woodcote (Alan's) design which he has made a awesome thread a while ago.

I've made a sliding base which has the sandpaper on, I still need to fit a different grit paper on the other side.
Obviously in the video I can't use both hands as I'm holding the camera but you get the idea of how it works.

The miniature power supply I found a guy on ebay who seems to be a electrical genius (in my eyes anyway) he has said if anyone on the forum would like one send me a pm and I can give you his email and he'll do a little discount, not that this was expensive for what it is.
 You can even use a soldering iron off the usb plug at the front.
You can adjust the voltage, it really is a nice bit of kit.

Hi Guy's,

I forgot to add the link to the page and I can't seem to edit my original post.

There's a lot of information on it if you scroll down, I stupidly ordered just the shell and some parts but he sent me a complete unit once I'd realised I hadn't read the different options correctly.

You will also see he's not a business it's just a hobby which is even more a reason to support him in my eyes.

I don't know the guy but it's been one of the best things I've brought off ebay, his communication was very good.
