The moment you realise...
Isn't it a kick te balls the moment you realise the part you have been making is completely wrong and you are going to have to start again?
I've been making up some wing stays for cycle wing on my s7 out of a pair that has been cut off another car, so needed to make new mounts. Just
trial fitted them and realised that having the mount on te bottom of the bar causes it to foul the top wishbone, so now need to grind the mount off
and start again

I completed making a water tank for my ambulance/camper out of stainless. It was shaped to fit around the wheel arch in the bathroom area with the top
shaped to make the shower tray and fit the Thetfordtoilet. It took me just over 8 hours to make ot amd when I tried it, I'd made it in the
mirror image of what I wanted.....

Ideal, just find a camper that's the mirror image of yours

Yep - did that last Saturday when I eventually finished making a manual choke conversion. Fitted it all on, then found it didn't work
correctly.
Back to the drawing board! made another on Sunday, to a different design, and it works brilliantly.
