Homemade parts washer Parts Washer

Not being one to spend money unnecessarily I made this parts washer from on old central heating pump (supplied by Ian, thanks mate), a plastic container from Wilko's, 22mm and 15mm copper pipe and fittings then boxed it up with hardboard and mounted it on a 15mm Melamine board.

A Wilko's chip frying basket acts as a holder for smaller parts and there is a stainless steel grid in the bottom to keep the bigger parts out of the muck. The white fitting you can see in the top RH corner of the image is on of those push on type and it allows the short length of hosepipe to swivel whilst working.
