What's everyone else got to get done this weekend ? On the car I've got to make the gearbox side of my subframe, and hopefully the mounts.
Before I can do that though, I've got take the old microwave to the tip that comitted suicide during the week - before I can do that though I've got to take it to pieces - its all stainless steel and I hate to see good metal go to waste - looks perfect for some plasma cutting practice !!
Also got to take a pile of rusty piece I'ce cut off the car to the tip, plus a few boring householdy jobs to do while the wife's at work, then a wedding reception to go to later !

Nearly got all the weekend mission done, not too sure about the outcome though - it all looks a bit kak compared to the other side of the subframe so there might have to be a "version 2" soon..
