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

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???

Some work today with the front shackles.
They where to tight.
Had to do them twice, measured wrong the first time. 😌

I'm so happy to acquire this jewel.
Many thanks to a great friend, Anders. He was a close friend of late Per Sonnervik.
This work is from from Per.

Have a nice day to you all, I have it. :D
