I usually get most of the weekend , but at the moment I seem to spend at least half of that trying to work out the best positions for the alternator.

I'm sure it'll all come clear eventually.

You could have had a hours per year option

Mine build so far has been done in fits n starts

Have a good couple of weeks putting 30 -40 hrs a week in.........Then get clapped out & don't touch it for months

I guess that's why I am in year 3 of my build

Comes with age mate

Sometimes I don't know if I am wise or foolish

When I am feeling well, I tend to get stuck into the build big time .....Out in the workshop at 9am & not giving up for the day untill 9 -10pm
Lots of hours I know but don't tend to get a massive amount of things done........Everything takes twice as long these days

Usually burn myself out after a couple of weeks .........That said, I have tried going on at a more relaxed pace but seldom last any longer & don't get half as much done.

Never mind, i'll get there in the end
