i started work on the build tonight!

I started to strip the cortina hubs and uprights ready for their bath tomorrow(electrolising)

The first upright was a bit rusted and gunked up but got caliper off and then the hub nut dust cover had a bit of trouble with the split pin but off it came and 25 mins later had fairly clean pile of bits, i then loosly put it all back together and started on the second upright.

got the caliper off, then my dad came to have a chat and in my distraction i picked up the wrong upright and proceded to clean and strip the upright i had just done i didn't even realise when it didn't have a split pin!! what an arse

Get used to it- they'll be many more events like this throughout your build!

(I was that soldier)

the guy across the road from me actually blew his garage up. i cant remember how he did it but i looked so cool.
it was sturdy thing concrete block walls and all

the walls were bowed out and the roof was lifted up and then crashed down to the floor and it blew off both wooden doors about 30 feet away

That happened to a neighbour of mine whilst gas welding only his big boom sent him straight through his asbestos roof and into next doors garden. He got up and walked back to his house and put the kettle on for a cuppa, not a scratch on him.
