Can we please not talk humid and sweaty when relating to cuppa's very ordinary Twiggy pose? Bloke's gotta keep his tea down here.

Finally came to the realisation that my woeful visual assessment of bolts is almost always incorrect

Two sets of Pitch Gauges will from today moving forward live in the top drawer tool box

FWIW: Truth be known.....as to a simple query of GQ rear chassis bolt size/pitches I politely asked of our seniour members (moderators/administrators) some weeks ago never received a response 🥲

FWIW: The two rear side chassis OEM bolt holes on a 1995 GQ are larger and maybe a different pitch too versus a 1999 GU ute/ute same/same coily’s

Cheers Brother

IMHO, We only get one shot on correct bolt choice into OEM chassis’s when it comes to recovery points and the like

Thanks. This project was an exercise in learning how to bolt/screw timber on 3 axis, use some heavy duty tools and aim for precision!
Lots of fun and the workbench is very sturdy.
The top is just 25mm thick MDF, but screwed in from underneath.

Was killing time on Facebook this morning waiting for a shop to open ans this popped up. I need to make a stand for my Speedwerx bender. This will work a treat. The extra dies will go in the drawers. Weighs 40kgs so should work well.

I added a 19mm pine top for strength as the top is thin ans the bender is HEAVY!!! But seriously Outstanding!!!!

STOKED!!!!
