Well after looking at all the great pics of everyone else's project, I finally got myself a MIG welder and a cool auto-darkening welding helmet.

Practised on some scrap first then bit the bullet and moved to the real thing.

Only minor stuff first.

Weld up holes in sail panel.

We drive on the "right" side here  



I can see the headline:

American Tourist Kills Local
in Head-on Collision After Pub Tour!

When visiting England by car from the European mainland (where I worked for several years) I found that you really have to pay attention to driving on the left instead of the right. Driving a left hand drive car propably didn't help. Pulling onto roads from side roads and turning through intersections were prime opportunities for ending up on the wrong side of the road facing oncoming traffic. Yikes!

BTW, my transportation while pubbing was always either by foot or tube! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)
