I have completed the hull repairs and they have had their trip to the blasters, back on my truck and now back in the workshop on stands, ready for the resto process.

Excellent Colin, I see there is still a bit of drilling and cutting to do for the final drive outlets. Keep up the great work.
Regards Rick.

Hi Rick, no that is how it is. One side is different to the other side as they are both original and I have only repaired some cracks.
Colin. |

Thanks Colin, shows how much I don't know about them.

I thought I would put up some pics of a 3/8 rivet former I made this morning. It was a piece of mild steel rod and I used a off the shelf bull nose milling cutter for the shape. A bit of shaping on the lathe to suite my air gun and then some heat and quench in oil for a bit of hardness and it works very well. It's always hard to find tools from a supplier when you want one but some are not too hard to make when you need something specific.
