Day jobs...

Not that I'd want you to quit the day jobs, although you two clearly have skills to spare, but what ARE your day jobs (if you don't mind my asking). And i don't think you could convince me that Nik is a mortician, and that Richard is an aircraft pilot...

I would hazard a guess that this welding/fabrication work is more than just a hobby.

from what i gather from the films they are Farmers, not the new Range Rover every year farmer but the fix-it and make do type of farmer.

i could be wrong though :)

So Nik's not a mortician in real life and Richard isn't an airline pilot?? I've been sold a lie!!

I thought Nik was an Ambulance driver and Richard an Ambulance chaser (lawyer). :)

We're not farmers, nor is this our day job yet. We're just normal guys trying to eke a living out the best way we can.

 normal guys? are you kidding me,

show me how many 'normal guys' have the equipment and the skill to use it to fabricate any of the parts I've seen on any of the ten videos so far

I can't help myself but be in awe of every single bracket and captive nut I've seen

all through the series I constantly see a bracket thrown on the table that's just been made as if it's a nothing important

Each one of those brackets I see a lot of time designing and manufacturing the item, and I note you never show any reject parts that leads to the part that fits

Do me a favor and show a photo or video of a part that didn't fit and had to be redone once or twice, just to show your human and not from another planet

regards

Trevor

just reread my post and worked out that the steering rack position will be a "redone once or twice, just to show your human and not from another planet" thing
I'm looking forward to see if you re positioned the rack location or if your CAD system solved the issue
I could see a issue as soon as I saw that you raised the rack because of the engine location in relation to the fire wall but I didn't grasp how big it was until I saw the 6 inch bolt between the rack and the steering arm
I'm sure that by now you have solved the problem and it will prove your not from earth
Regards
Trevor
