A 3k watt kettle I might add :D

The duel fuel carb arrived. in the box was a a sponge air filter. So I thought I may try printing a box for it. :)


On a completely different note, I appear to have stumbled across a fibreglass bonnet for the Shedouin! It's on it's way .... :D :D :D

@Ianredspecial

A Bedouin came up for sale on FB. It was a bit of a dog, but cheap. I did say if he ended up scrapping, I would be interested in the Bonnet. As it turned out, he appreared to have a spare bonnet. !!! :D

Ok, got over that hurdle :) my mate Jenks turned up with one of those torque thingy's. Took about 5 seconds. A screw driver wedged behind the flywheel, and a smack on the crank with a copper malllet, and the fly wheel came off.

And then it rained. :D :lol:

So I shall do some more air filter box design :)

The Bonnet arrived :) It looks ok :D

Took it over to the garage the Shed is in. Tried to start the Shed, but it wasn't having any of it :lol: Took the battery out and brought back to put on charge. Also took the leisure battery out of the van for a charge up. I'm considering using the leisure battery for the Gen and lighting in the garage.

So, a bit of progress on the Gen front ...

Starter motor installed (doesn't quite fit by 1mm, but filed out). :) It now cranks :D

All the wiring is pulled out to rewire! Thats progress right! :lol:
