Great fabricating, it inspires me to do better with my metal work.

Yes whip a Upol product, gravitex is the single pack version of Raptor, I had to use it because I can't take the chance with 2k stuff at the moment, I've used it many times before and it's a tough durable product.

Yes autumn has arrived and temp is 6C, my workshop is heated and thermally lined so never goes under a nice 20C

Thanks bud, I've never really done the 0800 thing, it's not really me

Got the dash finished today, the ends were slightly different so had to be modded a bit










I'm just about ready to epoxy the cab and prime so I mixed up some old primers and painted the inside, this keeps all the dust sealed and gives much nicer environment for fitting up.

Steve, this cab has come leaps and bounds since you got it. Great work! How are you feeling any how? Good I hope.

Half way through my chemo Ryan and the specialist had some great news for me yesterday, my PSA test readings are now undetectable which is great, still got to see the course through but it's very good news and has given me a welcome boost ��

Where's the, "That's awesome" button at? That's so great to hear for you. I hope everything continues to go great for you on this situation Steve!

Thanks buddy

Ditto Steve, Great news. Very happy for you and your family

Steve we are all puling for you as we don't know what this site would be like with out you! Keep posting and we will keep praying...

Yep to all the above Steve, even down under we have you and Sue in our thoughts and prayers.

Wow thanks guys, I appreciate the support, havnt been on for a few days as just had my 6th chemo and it knocks you sideways for a few days so you just lay about feeling aweful for 3-4 days.

My younger sister is in Auckland Hospital having that now although she just phoned to say she may be discharged due to the specialist wants to get the cancer in her liver sorted ( don't know how they will accomplish that ) so that her next servings of chemo gets to the other places it needs to go. She is only 56 years old and has it in her lungs, liver and lymph nods ( excuse my spelling ) so I think it is a up hill battle really. Cancer is such a curse and yet mankind is willing to spend trillions of dollars on weapons of destruction yet can't fund scientist to find a cure for the common cold let alone cancer.
Enough of me, glad you are still copying and making a headway against your cancer Steve.

Hang in there whip, just look into other oncologist in your sister's area and maybe get a second consult. Cancer treatment is such a groweing field here n the US that it's seems sometimes a younger MD can be beneficial since they are more current with treatment. PM with any questions, I lost my mom to lymphoma and always will do what I can for others going thru this horrible disease process.

Steve ask your doctor if he can prescribe ( emend tripack aprepitant capsules ) It is a 3 capsules pack the first is 125mg you take it 2hrs before a round of chemo then the day after that round you take the 2nd 80 mg cap and the next day take the last 80 mg cap it realy helped me last year with my chemo I don't know how your health care sys works but my medicare ins paid for it with a 40.00 co pay because that 3 capsule treatment cost 792.00 if you have to pay for it good luck to you I hope you do well I know what your going through been there. you will be in Pam and my prayers GOD BLESS
