More Progress on the Side Tanks
Paul Orrells reports more good progress at Minehead, all of the fixing holes for the outside sheets have been drilled.
The sheets were then tack welded together at the front, and the combined sheet was then laid down to weld from the seam from the back.
The front and rear welds were then all completed and the welds now awaiting dressing.
The target is to get the side sheets cleaned up and the inside of the frame finally painted this week, to enable us to fix them in place for the final time on Saturday.
Work will then progress on the inside sheets.
