Today I Am Mostly........

That’s excellent news Government aid is actually coming through
Well done, hope your business does well

 

Congratulations, I hope it provides the relief that you so badly need.....

 

Well the model making has come to a halt unfortunately, there’s some bits missing so I can’t put the brakes together. It’s coming on though.


Onto the next job then - this lot turned up today and needs putting together to make a log cabin/shed for Mrs Freck.

 

Spent most of yesterday jet washing the slabs and the house. Then repair all the cracks in the rendering, ready for a coat of paint once it's fully dried. One downside to all this lockdown, is it's impossible to get any grey masonry paint !!! Unless I want 25L or pay £££

Also finished building this with my daughter...


Forgotten how much fun a Tamiya kit is, building and running around the garden

 

I had the same problem @Mr Orange B&Q said paint wasn’t essential but I could have some plants????

 

I tried getting some fence paint from Screwfix. Not an essential item apparently so not currently available

 

You're safe a friend has it now for chopping down things in his garden.

Oh but I do still have these

 

Oh ho ho.Today I have been mostly. mocking up this ;-



Then sending for more of these ;-



Taking delivery of them ;-



Cleaning this;-

 

Blimey a Gunsons colourtune, I still have mine from the late 70's somewhere

 

Suzuki GS750, late 70's.

 

Great bikes, I had a Honda CB 750 K6 at that time always did like those GS Suzuki's and the GT 750 in Heron Suzuki colours.

 

Does the colortune work?

 

Not touched it since the 80's I will have to look for it and test it

 

Its an ignition device, you remove the spark plug and fit this tube with an glass centred spark plug and an extension to fit the plug cap, when you start the engine you can look into the engine and see the colour off the flame so you can adjust the carb to give you a blue flame as apposed to a orange one [rich]

 

Are you saying I am old

 

Ive got a book.

Here,

 

No dont bother mate, cheers. I meant did it work for you?

 

sort off

 

I have a strobe light coming for the ignition timing, she ran fine before, so with the Colortune as a extra, and the right jets in and upgrade jets coming, it should be quite well covered.
A wealth of knowledge on here also.
I took the wheels off and should get the tyres on tomorrow. Cleaned up the cushdrive and set up the chain and sprockets ready for torquing.

 

They just arrived today.
