Fiddly Bits

Following instructions is one thing, but when instructions are not quite complete then obviously things can go wrong! Well it started last night when the allen key wouldn’t undo a bolt (that was on a prebuilt part). I was using metric and then i thought maybe its imperial, but no it was not the case, i had to undo the bolts with pliers because they have been rounded. This would have a lot easier if it didn’t have a sleeve washer on it. At the end of the day i ended up having to undo these bolts twice because the instructions are a little all over the place but have stopped tonight because after looking a little ahead on the instructions again I’ll have to undo them again, so with saying this progress is a little slower than expected. Here’s some pics of where I’m at.

4×4 Show

Janine, the best girl in the world purchased tickets for herself and me. We have been having a ball checking out XXXX girls and the monster truck action. Heaps here to see, just not enough cash in pocket to buy everything. Now we’re just waiting to see the next monster truck gig.
