TY80, class brings back memories! Good luck with the build

[skov]

Nice to see the TY is bringing back a lot of fond memories!
All it's doing is p!ssing me off at the moment - the brake pedal gouges a hole out of my leg every time I walk past it
Might have to invest in some shin pads!

Made a little more progress today. Managed to get U3 to U6 down.
I was struggling to get them aligned, until I discovered we had some welding magnets at work. Had them done in a jiffy with those



May be a bit premature, but I couldn't resist doing to air steering wheel / brum brum test

Premature? I had my build board marked up and sat on it where the seat was and did the brum brum and air wheel.
