Made a brass wire hook for the galvanised bucket.
Stripped the black paint/powder coat of the trolley handles.
Made some hardwood handles.

The engine started first go after having oil put in the sump, fuel in the petrol tank and water in the cooling hopper.
The scale and the detail is just incredible. The engine sounds just fantastic purring away and I'm really looking forward to testing out a lot of different accessories after a few break in runs of the engine to see just what its capable of running.

The disks that form the support for the stub axle are 10mm thick but the tube I'm welding to is only 3 mm thick so hard to ensure good penetration in one without burning through the other - or at least that's my excuse !
I did a quick four stripes in the rushy bit of the paddock and it seems to be working ok.

A mixed fortnight of electronic repairs, field work and drive construction, it was hard and hot work! We ran out of gravel and the good news is there is another three bags arriving on Tuesday, the bad news is that it is going to rain all week!!
Phil, the monsoon cometh in East Yorkshire!
