    Heya JF,

    Read through your entire build to date. I liked your photos and descriptions of the tasks. Nice work done.

    I will be following along. All the best,

    that looks like a a very thorough job JF! Looking good - I really like the look of the white Polyfibre when heat shrunk - it is a shame to have to put all that pink poly brush all over it!

    Enjoying reading about your progress.

    cheers
