Monday Afternoon:
A slight change in family plans gave me another opportunity to edge forward a little bit more.

So out came my cheap Dremel look-a-like tool.



Which is great for trimming excess fibreglass matting from around the bracket screw holes.





My angle grinder also came out to play as I tidied up the rest of the wheel arch.



Including removing the small sections that had "ballooned", ready to re-do them.



I also tidied up some of the joins on the sunny side.



I then used a couple of wheelie bins to form a bit of a wind break for the fibreglass work.



Note: Spookily, the old newspaper I was using included a review of Bowie's last album, just days before he died.

I used an excess of fibreglass matting all around the two big gaps I needed to bridge.



This should allow me to remove the brackets and add extra matting to the inside edges, before sanding down the outside edges.

Actually, there will be quite a bit of work to do before I am left with a smooth arch.



But at least this was another step in the right direction.

I will now leave that to set a bit more before getting the covers back on again for the night.

Until next time, take care, Paul.
