What a difference a spray makes!

Glass Bead Blasting is Fun!!

It's been a long time between blogs for me, busy with work, life and trying to keep warm and dry.

Thankfully we've seen the end of the long cold dark days (...she says as she looks over her shoulder out the window, to the hail and wind...!) OK...so most of the long dark days are overwith :)

I finally got my act together and proceeded to the next stage of the SS180 project, the clean up of parts.

Here's one side done and one in need of attention, makes a HUGE difference!

In the process of the pull down I continued to find some astonsihing asian shortcuts.
This I had heard of, but never actually come across it...until now.

It's the drink can shim!!

and for some reason, they reamed out the hole! See above pic- It's supposed to have a nice round hole there where the gear selector rod goes thru to selector! God knows why? All going to be fixed up by Higgo and will be as good as new when done so no stress there but you still have to ask yourself why!!!!

Stay tuned for more.....
