Mac - Obviously I had to make the
Trainspotting quote a bit more "family friendly".
I did go through my box of bits and I couldn't find a spare for that hand brake nut you were looking for.

Alternative Christmas Tree Chore:
The other day I had to clear all the branches overhanging into our neighbours garden...
So somewhere along the line I need to get this mess sorted out as well.
If you look closely on the left you will see filler dust from preparing the repair panel yesterday.
( I managed to cut the panel from the same filler caked wing as before.
)
Car Work:
Managed to get a bit of time outside just as the sun was starting to set.
Welded the external support arm in fully along one side.
I then hammered the edge of the bulkhead over to meet the box section.
Then that too was welded to the box section.
I didn't quite finish this line of welding as I ran out of wire.
The new welder was supplied with 6mm wire, but I have a spare reel of 8mm.
It will not take long to switch it over, but it was already dark, so I did something else.
I hammered the repair panel I cut out yesterday into shape.
And this is it resting roughly in place.
It will end up a better fit when it is clamped into position and welded.
Until next time, take care, Paul.
