They won't be mounted as in picture but on the wall
below where they are now.

There is a square with no diagonal bracing on the side to the right in the pix.  A brace from the upper left to lower right would help keep it from collapsing in a wreck.

Good idea Bo, I'll check it out.

Thanks man. :cheers:

Somebody else was yelling at you about that a while back too Mate, I just figured you hadn't got around to putting it in there yet.

Welding, welding and more welding.

Gee, it never stops.

The further I go the more welding needs to be done.

The next guy that walks into my shop and asks why it isn't finished yet is going to get
a taste of some Old Testament. :wink: :-D :-D

I guess they watch too much "reality TV" where a guy builds a custom bike or car in one
whole week. :roll: :roll: :cheers:

I'm on it Sid.

Riaan Lingenfelder

Mike. Is it finished yet?

Elmo Rodge

Hey Mike. You about done with that? I mean, you've had a whole week.  :roll:       :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: Wayno

Mike, there are times when you've got to just sit back and look at it, all over, carefully and formulate the next stage in your head. Sometimes that takes almost as much time as the actual fabrication, but it can save an awful lot of redos and lead to a better piece. Fabricating a fast, safe lsr car is a creative art and creativity takes time.

Keep up the great work.  :-D :-D :-D

Yeah, Mike -- aren't you done yet?  Just think how quickly Wayno has built his tanker.  I mean - from idea to completion and running down the salt took only about five days I mean 5 years.  Listen to him -- he'll give you all the help you need to get it done.  He's working with the speed of a glacier - just sailing along like you could be doing. :cheers:

Thanks Pete, the other two guys get nothing. :-D :-D :-D

I suspect one of them is sitting at the river camping.
I should sneak up on him at 2AM but he'd probably shoot me. :|

I'll get Wayno at Speed Week next year. :cheers: :cheers:

All good here. I tried changing out fluorescent tubes that were blown.
6 of the new ones had the ends fall off. I guess the Chinese dudes
want us to fill them with gas ourselves. :evil:

So Jon, if Wayno is that slow he probably won't be at the races next year!!
Pity. :x

Mike........never make any assumptions regarding Wayno.

There is a separate world spinning just for him.

And it spins just right.  8-) Mike, worry not. I'll be there.  :cheers: Wayno
