Lols!, thanks, yes its usable, but far from perfect!
Maybe next time your doing a run with a proper machine i could send you the blank moulding? would be great to sort a proper machine for doing it.
Could be a marketable product maybe?!

Definitely marketable....if one existed that would house my switchgear and cb and maybe my sunglasses etc....and was around the £30 mark I'd just buy it!
Sadly I don't see one...so it's on my "to do" list.
I think what you did was great and you learned a few things along the way which is how we all learn best...heuristically?
When I get around to the roof pod I'll send you one free of charge just for having a good go at it....and succeeding!....you can place it in the bin if you don't like it

More progress... (but not by me)
My mate who likes car wiring has been round today and started to fit it out and wire up...
meanwhile ive been busy in the shed with the new 3.909 diffs . a good cleanup and install the air lockers. Got both put together today so they are going in over next two days, along with the TG shafts
