More Small Steps - Part 2:
With my wife's help, the body shell went back on the frame so I could mark up the driver's side of the cockpit again.
A quick session with the jigsaw left me with this.
Just before making the cut I took a photo of how the the rear cockpit edge looks now.
This is close enough to a straight line for me and it looks much better than when I started.
I abandoned the next job which was to start building up the rear cockpit lip around the newly cut corner on the driver's side.
As by now, the sky was looking like this ( AGAIN!
).
I was on the last stages of tidying everything away when the heaven's opened and I got a bit wet.
Project Status:
The good news is that the body shell is really starting to take shape now.
The bad news is that as everything thing takes so long, that I have no idea when I will ever finish this build.
However, the "glass half full" view is that at least I know now that one day I will finish it.
Without wishing to tempt fate, I think all the really big problems have been overcome.
So I will stick with my chipping away approach and see where I get before the winter sets in.
Until next time, take care, Paul.
