While shepherds watched paint dry.

So it is Christmas Eve and nothing was stirring ….

I haven’t been able to do much this week but managed to get back to some bits on 05 KD 28 today. What time I have had over last few days has been spent boarding the inside of the workshop and installing a door, as well as improving my generator set up. All good stuff that will make working slightly more comfortable and importantly cut the dust that can fall on fresh paint.

Today I managed to paint the front axle (to chalice necks) and do a final coat on the sump.

Black is the new black.

I have to say the axle does look good in fresh black! It is good to have certain bits entering the final stages

I also cleaned the machined faces on the head and got it ready to re cut the valve seats and ream the valve guides. I may not get that done tomorrow!
