Woo Hoo - painting parts for the rear cabin is complete. Finished today. Also got the final coat in two of the internal lockers. Four to go.
My new soldering kit arrived today as did the angled screwdriver. Ready to fit the LED's as soon as the lining is on the walls.
Tomorrow will do internal sealing around the side windows. I'll let that cure over the weekend and on Monday I can get back on with the lining.
I need to decide how far to take this. I was going to line out the lockers but not sure it is worth it. The painted finish isn't too bad and the insides will be out of sight most of the time. Will see how I feel when I get this far.
In other news one of our containers arrived at the new unit. Now I know you take it slow and steady but the driver made a bit of a meal of offloading and soooooo slow. Tried it in four different configurations before managing it. It was when his boom locked up at 100% load and he said it will get easier as he 'extended and lowered it' we just looked at each other. Physics don't work that way.
Nope - 2nd attempt and the lorry is still positioned wrong - couldn't get the container into the right spot.
3rd go. Ain't going to swing that round without smashing the fence down. All about spacial awareness and it got a bit hairy at this point.
4th bash at it - big smile from the driver as he told us during the initial lift only 67% of capacity - duh yeah on a vertical lift - extended the arm over to the other side of the trailer - 30 sec's later - locked out at 100%. Lots of messing about to get it down and in place.
And this was the easy one. Never did get back to us with the 2nd container - ran out of time and now it's the bank holiday weekend. Delayed until next week now.
Still it made a break from painting bits of wood.
