Wanna get it all painted to moz, thinking of pulling my sump off as its still leaking from the front edge...:mad:
It seems you're not using any / enough gas when welding there Benn.
Gas will give you the penetration you want.
You're getting the right idea now mate - cut away metal and save on weight ;)
Just wait until you put all that metal tube work back in to yours it will weight double lolQuote:
