Hats of to you Dirk.

You are one that does the work and will afterwards be able to give the best advice based on school fees you will still need to pay. (The Few)

As opposed to those that give advise from information gathered from reading articles. (The Majority)

Remember the build is far more involved than the breakdown.

I stripped my 181 in 36 hours but have taken 6 months to put it together. Just do a little at a time and it will come together again.

And here is the last update: http://djb.co.za/?q=node/28

Bugger, I chose to record Christn's passage on my own site for several reasons, including the fear of post shedding. That site isn't only about Christn, it's about me in general. Right now, Christn is a major part of my life, so it's going there. When I do an update, I'm usually to damn tired to do the same here. So I simply post the links to the new pages. The pictures are all there too ;)

Thanks for the kind words Tom, I quote myself here as I wrote on my site:

"This of course, is the easy part. Stripping is far more forgiving than assembly."
See this page to read it: http://djb.co.za/?q=node/23

But yea, things are moving along. If all goes according to plan, Christn will be driving to George and back next year :D

By the way. For those of you who are interested, you can read the complete process from start to finish here: http://djb.co.za/?q=node/11 each update is a link you can follow from this one. You will see them on the bottom of the page.
