Well having a break from the Track day Monza and another Monza shell waiting at the blasters - I'm not in a rush for it (I need to make some space)
I had planned to make a rolling JIG so I could move it around and more importantly get it off the trailer and in the garage as well as move it round/turn it round when needed to work on different sections of the car.
I purchased some steel
2 x 1.8m 40mm box section
2 x 1.3m 40mm box section
4 x 0.2m square 5mm plate
Some other steel for the adjustable uprights to pick up on the jacking points or chassis rails
And 4 x H/D wheelie bin castors which look like they'll do the job nicely
So with a partial empty garage I set to work building the JIG and I'd have had the damn thing finished tonight : was tearing thro it when the welder stopped - OMG my Portamig was broken
Nope I'd run out of wire ;D
Tommorrow I'll have the JIG finished then that can go for blasting and painting and then I'll hassle them to finish the Monza shell
Boy was I relieved
