Hi Warwick, Maggie is not up there as yet, the rack work is not done - but Wayne T. carried out some some preliminary roof rack work this afternoon on his day off, measuring everything twice and doing string lines etc, getting the pieces ready for welding. Many thanks Wayne. I helped a little. We are in the first stage, replacing the canopy railings between the front and rear ROPS bars. This will stabilise or stiffen up the ROPS properly, make it easier to access gear from the sides of the tub, and neaten up the canopy profile. All without modifying the ROPS or the tub in any way. It uses the same bolts as the original hoops. Today's fitting up and trials were all done in the carport in about 9 or 10 degrees.
I did get a couple of pics, maybe I'll put them up tomorrow.
In the middle of that I had to go to quick Dr. appointment I had arranged and leave Wayne to it. (Unfortunately I have being seeing a few med people lately, ever since that morning we did the sunrise video). While in the waiting room there was an email from a friend, like a secret santa or a genie, and in a blink we have brought a Superwinch X9 each! A bit exciting. (Heavy things. Still don't know the freight charges as yet).
So, some progress today for sure.
Also today the postie delivered the Aeropress coffee brewer thing (didn't get a chance to try it, just a look). And the machete arrived. Its impressive (sharp!)
