Mostly, I made my Unior pop - riveter start to eject used pins once more.
Wonderful stuff, is oil......

My mum had to teach me that 35 yrs ago when my dad's old pop-riveter failed to pop

Worked on this last week and TBH, between runs to the hospital, come back from work destroyed because I've had to clean out a water jet my boss bought from a marble shop,plus the frustration of working on my car, go here and there for buying things ...
It could be worse, I've failed this restoration.
Unfortunately the plastics were too much damaged.

No bracing to prevent warping?Yet more Volvoing. The front step repair went in nicely then I made a repair for the rear step/door frame.

The left hand sill got prepped and fitted as well and that’s the last of the panel replacement!

No it’s not really necessary when you’re only replacing the skin of the sill. If I was cutting out the step and the inner sill I would add a brace but fortunately I didn’t have to go that far.

That’s a bit drastic! Wouldn’t you be better using it on the fire

Why a LH drill?
My drilling mc is very noisy from wear,yet dead quiet in reverse,so found some left handers in the usual sizes,Tracy Tools.

That's a bit posh for breaking up toffee.

Yellow's a little hard, I'd have thought.

I'd go with purple , better softer than hard as hell,it can crack shooting fragments which can cause serious injuries

Got my active 62.62 disassemble to see what kind of damage has been produced by the 3 small engine mechanics which worked on it after me .
Well it's better than I thought,last one Sanded the cylinder and the piston, and put new rings too but...
He probably didn't deburred the edges of the rings seats and they got stuck.
Now the goal would be to save those rings and eventually both cylinder and piston which new would cost around 300 euros .
I have to reassemble it tomorrow for storing it will be a future project cause now I need to get a rotary hammer and a weed trimmer repaired .
Better before of next Saturday.
Plus it's coming in a Stihl chainsaw which I have to check the oil pump which has the priority over the weed trimmer but not over the rotary hammer.
I also have to check the engine conditions on my Husqvarna k770 for ordering parts, and also the throttle body for my punto is probably delivered home on tomorrow and hopefully I'll finally solve the engine issues on it .
Wish me good luck I have a lot of work to do
