Sod it im having a beer, finished messing aboot with the kitchen & was doon at the boat tapping plastic
sheeting inside cause I will be grinding fibreglass & I want to contain the dust. My mates do it the other
way & dont bother taping it up & just do a massive clean up. Errr nope. :)
 
Loft hatch & surround made, some nice polished stainless trim fitted. (in between the showers)
My table saw was set up outside, saw out- saw in- saw out-saw in now its staying in lol.

New lavvy seat fitted too wot a pita that was ended up chopping it of with my cordless grinder. :mad:
The replacement was a fiddle too, my arms were too big to squeeze round & up to get to the fixings underneath
ended up raking the store for longer stainless bolts. Done now tho. Yer it was a cr@p job....
I hagree old chip!
Fitting a loo is something I rarely ought to leeve to my little man, except I don't ev wan!;)
 
Got around to template making for my repair to the W/w.
Wot a pain!
I don't think very well at times. should have stopped and drank coffee while thinking instead of drinking it while ploughing on.
Turns out I cannot easily replace the rusty bit so will have to make a mount for the motor out of the one bit of sheet steel I have got and then pop rivet it to the rest of the rusty bit. Poop!
I am being really fussy about the fitting or all this as the last thing I want is to not be able to get the w/s wipers to arc and park where they should without tons of flipping about.
And it has been rainy all day and thundery/lightningy as well so had to switch the hub off. :mad:
I'm being really fussy about positioning of the motor mounts, but it is like those archeaologists who look at a little bone and say "This plonkysauraus was 125 metre long and 30 metres high". I have precisely the half of a mounting hole in the rusty metal to go by!
 
Despite it being Sunday, as it was sunny I spent a large part of the day mucking around with the metal mounting plate for the W/w.
Had to stop to go and see a neighbour.
Roast chicken dinns, yum!
Have to be up early as the watter will be going off at 9 and not back on until 5, well, French 5, so lets call it 6!
We have a cunning plan to use the loo as normal!!;);););)


(Pump water from the storage tank where it gets it from the roof to fill the cisterns!)
Sleep well folks!:):):)
