Lol yea with age comes its issues .
Thanks for checking in brian and compliments from you mean alot as i know you have an eye for detail building hotrods.
What sort of galley lights did you use?
So far ive got one on the hatch and one under the first shelf (yet to be fitted )
They are infared sensor switched so you just pass your hand underneath them at about 50mm to turn them on.
Ive got one as my main cabin light too.

Ive got 2 300 series for hatch and cabin and a 400 undershelf.
You and kc nailed it... im in awe of every build here and learn something from all of them but i personaly most enjoy the little things (sometimes expensive things,sometimes not) that make them uniques.
Cheers for stoping by bud

Dale, I am really looking forward to getting that little bit of tin to stick on the back of the trailer.

Keep it up. BTW - my fibreglass back in stock so going to get some this weekend just in case he sells it all. Just something else to fill up the shed.

I built this 5' slide for my neighbor using skateboard bearings. Obviously it's critical to get the right distance between the bearings. I made a marking jig out of scrap aluminum and it went fine.
