Popped out to the metal recyclers yesterday to see if I could find something that is already bent in the shape of the instrument cluster to cut down as a small peak.
No luck, but a beer keg rim would work.
Except it is just too ugly and heavy.
But while rummaging I found a complete, hardly used Record No 111 vise/vice (never sure what spelling is correct.
Asked about it.
“Gotta weigh it mate, then ask the Guv” came the reply.
5 minutes later I had it for £10.00
Now I need a bigger welding table.
I also picked up a few loose bits, declared them and got them for free.
On the way home I made two stops, first to pick up so e brake fittings with no nuts, and then at the local motor spares shop the nuts at 40p each.
@nickwheeler was helpful in sharing a pic for the new guy at Aghabridge of exactly what was needed as he could not locate them, based on my description.
So brake lines can be added now.
And following a 3 hour online training session, Sally and Bonnie popped in so the dog that still is in isolation, as is Sally, could run around in my back yard.
Amazing that 10 days ago this was a very ill dog with Parvovirus.
Now she is nonstop.
Day job is a bit hectic at the moment, and working face to face most days means no chance for quick win jobs.
The weather this week is also less than ideal with cold and rain forecaat.
Have a good day.
