will dig it out of the shed when i pluck up the courage to open the door.... Shaun the workshop continues.... the RSJ arrived today nicely over engineered so i can use it to hoist carrier engines in and out

Kevin i will grab that piece tomorrow, photo it and if you want it to copy, i will send it down.

Richard, Once you dig it out send it down to me, I am going to make up about eight sets of these downcomers and they will be very cheap as I can make these at work myself.

The exhausts were expensive because I had to pay someone else to make them and they wanted to make there own profit, I have one set left here I am sure we can work out something if you want them, perhaps throw in a set of downcomers for the loan of yours. what you say?. These can be fitted to your carrier now once the angle iron and backing plates are on.

not trying to give you the hard sell but I would rather you had them, (shaun you have a set set aside). I am not going to make anymore as they turned out to be a lot of hassle.

kevin.
