Knocked out a bit of stud work on my master and spare rooms. Changing configuration of the robes. Spare room robe was pretty much a broom closet so we've gone up and divided the space for both rooms. Going to work much better I think.

Finally some 'Rona rule logic... well over here at least and similar to SA I believe.
Schools open this week.
Groups of up to 10 family and/or friends now allowed to picnic, camp, socialise etc
Public transport timetables ramping up towards normal.
Got rid of the last of those bastard Cruise Ships and most of the "voyage of the damned" people repatriated home, still a number of pax and crew from the mongrel things in Hospital tho.
Mining sector going balls to the wall with companies like Rio doing finger prick blood testing before you can fly out each swing (so far found 1 case out of thousands tested).
Hopefully, won't be long now before saying "Picked up a case of Corona this morning" won't mean 6 people immediately throwing a bucket of bleach at you... :-)

Hahaha. Believe it or not bloody BFG has superseded the KM2 with the KM3 and No longer make the KM2 and they could not get me a tyre!!! They fitted a new KM3 to that rim but I rejected it as I have 9 KM2s and the last thing I want is 1 KM3 damn it!!!Quote:

Cheers mate. They are 16x8 procomps. I fitted them last October with the new KM2s. Very happy with them. They cost me $500 a corner for rim and tyre. Bargain.Quote:

This damage was done on Climies Track in Tassie and No questions asked.
Nah it is bang on. The 2 back doors are the only 2 panels not painted.Quote:

I'm thinking of getting the flares 'skinned', you know that stick on stuff, just to make the ol girl stand out a bit.
How much damage did you get in Tassie? Did you put it on its side or something?
Shop around for tyres mate.Quote:

Yeah $500 for Alloy rims and tyres was great. 305/70/16. Very happy. Solid rims too.Quote:

A small dent in the side wing of the Kaymar bar had then replace the whole bar....
Insurance paid for a $20k respray, a new Kaymar rear bar and a hire car for 21 days.
Possibly my wackiest idea to date does appear to be working so far with quick tests this afternoon, happy days :-)

Clever thinking @MB, again. Are you going to put some sort of screen in there to catch the gunk or it may build up into a big mess.
Carbon filter (slide in/out) at the intake (edited) port areas maybe could work I guess?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Sorry, is this for extraction or supply? If extraction is it for food steam like above a stove or simply a room vent to pull spent air out or supply fresh air into the room. Just the terminology has me confused. the filter style would be driven by the use of course.Quote:

OK, look at a standard range hood element for guidance, woven metal pads that can be washed in detergent. The floor grills for ducted heating are going to be problematic but understand the time constraints you are under with this build - maybe address it later?

After selling my Acres in 2006 and my big shed with it I have basically had a mass8ve level of deep Storage ever since. I have rebuilt the GQ from the ground up TWICE in that time without a shed!!!
9 years ago I moved into my house with a plan to extend the existing shed slightly and lid the roof. A rebuild of a GQ, a baby, and about 10 different options for a shed later and Yesterday I drove the GUIV into the New Shed for the first time. It was a Very Big Deal gents. Kind of blew my mind actually!!!!

Mine has knocked me on the head for another roster, so more time in the shed, plenty of time to finish the beast, good news, With luck should be back in another 6 weeks - happy days.

What an offer - no, I am hanging pictures in the 'baby's room' and maybe a few more after that - sweating on the pump that is supposed to arrive tomorrow., then I can get distracted about that mini project. I will let you know if I strike a dead end!Quote:
