I’ve been putting off tackling the broken sump bolt, convinced that it was likely to be in tight and develop into a saga and I’d damage the case. It was in a blind hole and I was worried that the bolt had bottomed out before snapping. However using a left hand drill it was out in under a minute! I’ve used stud extractors before but this is the first time I’ve used a left hand drill - handy bit of kit.

So my new years resolution is to concentrate solely on preparing and painting the cases. I can then assemble and install the bottom end. The garage is pretty cold at the moment and there’s no sign of the weather improving for some time so I’m thinking of knocking together some sort of paint enclosure which I can heat.

Very satisfying when it comes out that easy. I bought a cheap tent to erect in the garage makes a nice space easy to heat and can be dismantled afterwards.

That's an excellent idea Johhny and a Top-Tip. It saves all the hassle of trying to put up sheets of plastic that blow around when the door is open for ventilation and having a base will also prevent dust being raised from the floor.

Great idea. I was going to cobble up a frame and plastic sheets. I’ll give this a go.

I've used a gazebo with sides before. Worked well, but doesn't have a floor/groundsheet, of course.
