i thought it might not get there till thurs but pleased it made it in one peice
what condition was the box in - did it look like it had taken a beating or was it well handled - just thinking ahead for the return journey and using another courier if so

...so you'll be making moulds then

Thats what nasty suggested again today..... at first i turned it down
but am pondering the fact it will be sturdier once moulded as it cracked on its journey to birmingham

....i'll talk to him later tonight and see what he thinks is the best thing to do
i spoke to him today and he said its a hairline crack that is easily fixed and
i think he's gonna start painting soon so we'll need to decide pretty quick

plus point is if you have moulds and have a spill, it'll be easy to remake as a single item and not to have to build from loads of bits again

theirs not chance of the fairing getting damaged as its 3 inch thick

and v,very well made
