Good to see you're around Bon_Scott.

Nice catch! I head towards Killcare for most of my fishing these days as it is very consistent. The moon is in the right phase both days this weekend but the weather is supposed to be crap, so I'll probably stay home and keep working on Kermit and whatever distractions The Countess comes up with.

I try and paint as early as the hint of warmth arrives and I've setup a frame off the pool fence so the sun can do its work.

BB - I love the challenge of doing everything myself and your guidance & tips are making that easy. I heard a cheer in the metal room about an hour ago and upon investigating, saw the boys high-fiving after the removal of the clutch half. It looks like the 2 grub screws were the culprit, as you suggested! They said they pressed the clutch towards the motor by about 2mm and then was able to use that as momentum to ease the part off. I'll bring the catcher into work next week and start knocking out the kinks and love-taps before stripping the paint and preparing it for its own re-birth.

This weekend will be mainly spent working on the handlebars (which look pretty good) and cleaning/polishing the array of bolts, nuts, washers etc so I can make sure I have them all. I still haven't decided on the eventual colour so that will have to be done fairly soon too.

Cheers,
TC.
