Well I've picked up all of my wheel studs and once I've cleaned up all of my hubs and painted them I'll be getting into fitting them.

Yesterday I picked up the 50x50 box for my work bench, and I've been continuing to make the steel plates to hold it all together. I've made all of the plates needed for the feet, however when I came to weld the nuts onto 4 of the plates for the adjustable feet, I'd found my house mate has used all of my welding gas, as well as breaking my 3mm drill bit and M3 tap. Safe to say I'm not happy as its been over a week since he's worked in the garage and he could have told me that he used all of my gas as it tends to be a right pain to get hold of co2 so I could have organised getting some earlier on.

I may however take the opportunity to change to argon mix, however this also means I will need to buy a new reg for £30.

But my work bench is definitely progressing and I'm really impressed with it so far.
