All done and that's a bit of a hassle to do. Having the hull on it's side does make it easier though. I also had to machine up the steering pivot bracket as it also had the same fate as the mounting blocks.

I managed to find half a day today so I got all the mounting blocks welded in place and made a few more. The scrap steel photo's are just to say that it does pay to keep all sorts of pieces and not throw them away. They can all be resurrected in one form or another.

I also had to remake the foot rest and the centre plate support as the photo shows they were 95% gone. I do have another carrier to copy from!

My L/H engine support plate is also nearly gone but I had a piece of another one so I am reconstructing the rest of it. It is also quite pitted on the top so I'll fix that too.

Some of the pitting went over half way so I welded, ground, welded, ground, welded and ground until I got a reasonable flat surface. I'll finish that part tomorrow!
