I use it cos it's just a good, cheap industrial finish. Fine for most of my stuff. Never had it chip off -it usually scuffs because it's not brittle like paint. Everybody's got their favourite & I guess you stick to what you like.  |

Is this an omen. The Pop has reached that number. χξϛ
or perhaps it did 50 pages ago.

Getting older but no wiser! Just using bigger hammers.
The answer to most problems, fire and lots of it.

So fed up with this.
Seem to be doing & re-doing the same stuff over & over again. It is progressing, but so slowly.
Yellow filler primer squirted over the panels I sanded down last week. I had to rub them down & re-fill them after I cleaned up the bulkhead & sanded some welds with the angle grinder, which bubbled the original skim of filler. Another week & I should be back where I started.

Maybe I should just spray it all in yellow primer & leave it at that -the Banana-Mobile.

Drilled the bulkhead, painted around the edges of the holes & fitted the remote bleed nipples for the servo.

Been waiting 2 weeks for Doug the engineer to machine 2 mild steel slugs for me, that'll be welded into the frame loop under the dash, to make it removable.
I contacted him yesterday & he admitted he'd lost my diagram. So I had to re-measure & re-draw it this afternoon & drop it down to his workshop.
This is his big block Ford powered Zephyr daily driver. He was working on it when I first started taking work to him about 25 years ago. It finally hit the road 6 months ago.

Still waiting for the machinist & 2 different welders to do their thing.
Sat in the garage, rubbing down filler in the Pop cab, the thermometer says it's minus 3 -& I've just heard an ice cream van go past! He's 'avin' a larf in't he?!

Dark evenings working by the light of an LED lamp. It's re-chargable but only lasts for about an hour & a half.
Light goes out -I go home.
Loads to do but not getting much achieved at the moment.

Same type I've got Mike. I've had them a couple of years & I think they're gradually lasting less & less time on each charge.
