Mechanical psychiatry…
What a roller coaster week it’s been in British politics! I had such a busy week at work I decided to spend the weekend with my Mechanical Therapist.. AKA ROJ.
I know I keep banging on about how big a mistake galvanising the chassis was – but it really has been a bloody pain drilling out the captive nuts and threaded mounts, especially when some were so hard to get to.
I decided to blitz the front of the car this weekend. To get to the anti-roll bar mountings I had to cut through the chassis struts – in one mounting hole I’ve got a broken tap which will take time to grind out using a diamond bit.
We’ll need to take great care when welding them back up as Zinc fumes are highly poisonous.
It wasn’t all work as it was Clive’s Birthday – he put on a great barbeque with the now legendary bonfire, where all the wood and furniture comes from each year is beyond me, but everyone loves it.
