Soooon.
That's a word a Jamaican receptionist used when we asked when the shower would be fixed in our Hotel room.
I'm not sure what it means but our shower wasn't fixed before we left Jamaica 14 years ago, and I suspect they're still telling guests that the man will come to fix it soooon.
I did a bit of sanding yesterday but I'm in the middle of a set of shifts which eats into car building time, plus it's blowing an absolute gale here today which turns my garage into a dust storm when I open the doors.
Will report on progress soooon.

Lol, well be sure to tape up your garage door shuts and brush some water on the the floor , that will help with the dust kicking up with the airline and your feet. You can rent front someone like Brandon hire an extractor with a long hose so pass that through the window and tape around to seal around the edges ..

Mike - Looking good & the grille works well.
As always, I'd love to see more photos of your doors & hinges (inside & out).
I know your doors are more solid than the ones I am working with.
But it would be good to see working doors to give me something to aim at.
Cheers, Paul.

Mike - Thanks for the offer, I really appreciate it.
But I have got to at least "have a go" at my doors before getting the professionals to do it properly!
Cheers, Paul.

Paul. Please consider rearranging this well known phrase -
gift never mouth in horse a the look.
I know what I'd do if I wanted doors.

I think that is a very generous offer from Mike and to be honest I think it will save you a lot of time and heartache. Guaranteed to work too. Think fast track!!!
