This weekend’s violations, sorry I was so upset dealing with yet more rot I forgot about photographing it. I knew there would be issues around the emergency exit, so I guess I ignored it for as long as possible. Cut out and repaired in a day, so not to bad. A new step trim still needs to be...

Betty has some consumer power again, just as well in today’s heat. I’m so glad this was built externally, just finding the correct wires in the umbilical leading to it was horrible. Just what you want with electrics is to wash it in sweat. But what is going on? Engine start batteries being used...

I have a few along those lines David. All fantasy at the moment. Though I do have some ideas about the body construction.

I know a ready made body makes it easy, but until I'm put off I'm planning on making a new body. Being able to build below the chassis should free up some space. I'd like to find a short wheelbase and keep it under 7 metres long. Best start saving some pennies as I think a new chassis cab is...

I must admit I am tempted to do a daft for the next build, I’m starting to worry that the lack of euro 6 or 7 will be a problem.

Just remember David, this is a very small pond. The bulk of people who look at it can’t type. Or we’re just a sad lonely bunch.

Tough audience David :(

I still think your best bet is to market them from your stand at shows. A bit of thought and your display could be electrifying. ;)

With my figure now I no longer get paid for stripping, more likely to be arrested!

Pork, David :(

I think limiting the items that it will be compatible with may be useful, especially if you can supply them to.

I think you are on the right track David. From experience though, you will need to market it and it a big way. Next you will have problems being able to meet demand. You make investments to scale things up, or not. Meanwhile every cowboy and opportunist will be making them too. There is a...

This is the reason why my fridge fans are not controlled by temperature, but I imagine that tucked in your little cupboard it will lag the change in external temperature.

I think mine was about that price. This is what I used. https://www.melloronline.co.uk/Heater_Installation_Accessories_/206/60mm_Warm_Air_APK_DUCTING.html

I will soon be on window replacement again, this time I think I'll have to do it as my windows man has now got a warm and dry job. :( So my favorite tool will be a 25mm Stanley extendable knife and window cleaner as a lubricant. https://www.toolstation.com/stanley-fatmax-snap-off-knife/p66811

We have life, including a working touchscreen. Guess it didn't like my other monitor :(

I’m hoping to have it MOT’able by the end of the year. The fabric has been made, just need to find £1k to pay for it. Anita has been cleaning the brake callipers, so I should be able to rebuild them soon. Then throw all the bits back in and put it on its whee again. My big worry is that I’ll...

Just when you thought the demolition had ended, I made more holes in it. Or rather cut the existing ones bigger to find good steel. I knew this area was dubious by the pop rivet and mastic repair in the floor. Everything had to be ripped out of this corner to improve insulation and hunt for...

I resisted Trevor.

Much better idea than blowing fuses.
