After some time in my cave today, lovely time by the way.

Not quite sure about the location of the wirecutter.
I did rise the wirecutter a bit from the deck, I think that is right.
I welcome your comments, if I do something wrong.

Have a nice day
Robert

Sent you an email with the layout of a June 1944 Tiger 1.

Today had another look for my zimm tools but still cannot find them.

The silly season (Summer) has started with a bang. Yesterday broke the all time temperature record for June -- 41.3C.
Really envious of the Summers one gets in Northern Europe.

Where's the airconditioner???
