      Argh, just when you thought you had it solved. If you build me a 43xx, I might consider hand delivering some ;-)

      I would willing build one. SWMBO is back on the phone. The good news is the wheels are now released after 6 weeks in customs, so any time this year they will get here.

      Think I might wait until we come over next year might be quicker and safer.

  18. N15class

    For those who complain when a packe takes a few days in th post. I received on 11/12/13 a parcel posted in the UK on 10/8/13. Signed for 10 day delivery. So there is hope for the one sent 6 weeks ago!!!

    1. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      Yes, but you are in Brazil. There's an ocean in the way. I'm claiming the 26 *days* taken by Hermes to deliver a parcel that they assured the sender would only take 48 *hours* as a domestic record.

    2. N15class

      Always strang you get packets to Aus and NZ in a few days, they are further away

      Best wishes for a speedy recovery. And a good build.

    2. N15class

      N15class

      Thanks mikkel. Build is now primed, and I seem to be getting into more trouble, so that means SWMBO is getting better too.

      No carpet or hoover. They are lerking in the black hole called my bench.

       

  22. N15class

    It must be these diesel things, I just soldered 4 parts to the chassis which should be removable so the chassis can be removed.
