Hey glen. You remember your tool whore comments? Don't feel bad. My pops just bought 10 identical 3/8s drive wratchets.

finally got some progress going



The tub is in , drain works, glued it in with TEC7 Sillicone based glue... that thing won't move another mm.
halfway done with the wall on the left, when i ran out of glue..

Added some weight on top , pressure to help the glue settle nicely
That thing on top is one of the tiles... they are massive.

I just got back from the tool store. I ended up with yet another level. This one has a laser beam

The head on it rotates so it makes a line on whatever it is aimed at. I hope it will make my upcoming home alignment easier. I want to get my 911 back on the road by the next autocross!

Gday lads.
sorry about neglecting y'all. I've been up to my eyeballs in a renovation project on the cottage we bought. was supposed to be ready for christmas but that didn't happen. new years? maybe. i just put up the last panel board a half an hour ago. we went with 85mm panelling and i just put up 55m1 of it... do that math. it's like 200 boards or something. i just had some dinner and am going back to work. last few small boards and am going to clean up.

I started reading through the last |0 pages of posts but realised it was meaningless ramble as usual and gave up.

I plan on being there for breakfast.

I will just do a "pretty darn close" garage alignment to get it on the ground. After a while I will attack the rear suspension and do all those bushings. Then when it is all back together I will do another home alignment, let everything settle and after a couple of months have Scott at the dealer do a full alignment and corner balance.

prepping to drop engine = consume lots of beer thinking about whether one should dive into the task or just pay a mechanic and get it over with. Which will g-man do?

With drinking beers? I thought that was part of the gear-head's genetic makeup.

Judging by the smell wafting in my window I'd say our dogs just encountered a skunk.
