"The plans have changed slightly again"
"But you just explained to me for 20 minutes the new plan an hour ago"
"Well, they've just changed again. Hand me that grinder"

When I said I was looking forward to watching the build .... Didn't mean through a magnifying glass.......
postage stamp pictures can tell a different story.
Picture 1: somebody fighting with a vacum cleaner
Picture 2: somebody pouring beer onto a sparkling piece of steel ..
Normally one just saves the picture and blows it up with the viewer ...NOPE... some crazy upload format being used.
486 had to pick the lock and reveal the truth to the picture
Keep it up boys looking good ...........I think

Righto, lets give it another go.

FG.

Yeah Ross, Eddie is my nephew,he is documenting the build, the pictures he posted were early ones. Cheers F.G.

Welcome to the Dairies Eddie.....

Exersize is a "sin" put those two contraptions in the bin......
