Imagine me waking you up, 5:30am and ramming raspberry and elderflower smoothies down your neck and taking you for a run, followed by a nice hearty omelette for brekkie to give you a morning boost ready for a day of fibreing carbon followed by a afternoon sesh on Bid-Up.TV :o
Sounds good. Apart from 5:30am, running & bid up tv :lol:

this is great, i like seeing the pics of alex learning as he goes, you will end up like me with a large ish pile of parts your not entirly happy with, but you will get there, and then it can be very rewarding. coution on the overseas sales though, postage will kill you, its ok to say the buyer pays for postage but what if they need to return the item :shock: some folk are so fussy :evil:

The part will be coming out of the mould tomorrow. I'll be getting another shipment of supplies at the end of the week with some 'pro-finish' fibre and some infusion toys :)

Hopefully, going to patch the back with glass and resin the gap and sand it back. Unless vti2003 has any pointers...
