Found this on top of a cast iron bath yesterday. I am told it is a Mira 3. I'd never seen one before. It weighed a tonne.

It's a King Dick and I don't know how anyone can be a plumber/heating engineer without one.
What do you use to brace rad valves with when you undo/do them up if not a king dick?

I use my hand coz Im a geezer...
Nice tool though.
Paul it's time for the antique roadshow.
A plumber in Dublin a while ago found €120k behind a bath panel. He only handed it it cos the house had previously been owned by a dodgy developer. Got his house repo'd, obviously forgot about the money. Ye can imagine how many hiding spots he had if he left that behind.
You trying to tell me there's a sparks out there with a rubble sack? Thought you guys just left all your mess and off cuts on the floor....
I've got a smaller version which I bought on Doncaster market 45 years ago from an army surplus stall. It was packed in greasy paper in a WD box and had a couple of extra bits bolted to the jaws so it could work on castellated ring nuts. Believe it or not, it is engraved Rolls Royce.
We need a picture to prove it ;p
Just had a rummage in my garage tool box but I think I've left it on my £MILLION YACHT so I'll pick it up next time I go down there.
Might be up to a week.
Theres some pictures of your missus available if you want some of those GS, just in case youve forgotten what a life is
