Spent from 09.00 to 17.30 at mate Martin's today......
On the way there, I stopped at a guys house who had replied to my Freecycle request for old Imperial sized spanners, he had actually recently thrown this lot into a shopping bag, ready for his next trip to the tip, then my email came by...... Perfect.
So I still need to see what he gave me, and also to clean them all up, but hey..... More of the right sized sockets and extensions cannot be a bad thing.
At Martin's, this was part of what greeted me.
Much prepping, cutting and time spent, and little to show for it.
More cutting, grinding, swearing (at Martin) later..... Some welding
Made some templates, cut them out of a Ford Transit side panel with the nibbles Martin got from George and have more to do, but started seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
I also brought home some work to do here, to make a replacement panel for this piece.
This is sooooo rotten.
Ohhh, and one more side panel made today.
Whoever said this was going to be quick or easy??
Thanks for checking in.
