Re: What have you been doing during lockdown
Are you going for “Idle hands are the VolksRods workplace?”
Nice work, you’re inspiring me to get the cab floor Patched. And then ‘on to the left side rocker, and away!’

Re: What have you been doing during lockdown
I swapped from Weber ICT’s to a single Dellorto. The first step in my turbo conversion. But haven’t done much else to the car. Actually been busy with the empanada trailer. And food prep takes all my time.

Re: What have you been doing during lockdown
Recovering from my auto accident. I’ve been doing social isolation before it was cool!  15 months and going strong.

Re: What have you been doing during lockdown
Nothing has changed for me, going to the store is a big social even for me, it's the only time I see anyone other than my wife, my neighbors and my brother
I did a little patch work on mine over a month ago, bought some body filler, just haven't gotten around to doing anything else, still bare metal, I started a fire welding those holes up, luckily I had a fire extinguisher next to me, I'm guessing it was that hair they put up inside these things, just glad it isn't that foam
Last week I tried to start it but the battery was dead, I might hook up the charger today, I'm just gonna buy a new disc brake setup for the front since replacing everything will cost just as much, I may as well just get it all in one shot
It's still tough for me to get much of anything done, Shmitty will be 2 years old in 4 days (May 15th), he's starting to get better, but still insists on being right next to me when I try to do anything, at the moment he is sleeping, most days I lay around when he is sleeping, if I use my phone for anything longer than 5 minutes he will bark at me till I get up and play with him
I do have a video of me opening my garage door with him, if it moves and makes noise he wants it, that includes a lawnmower, angle grinder, and sawzall, those are just a few things I've tried to use unsuccessfully, until I put him on a chain
When I find the garage door video I'll put the link here

Re: What have you been doing during lockdown
I decided to finish my knife grinder after buying some belts, using all small pieces of angle and channel I've been saving, I still need to cut a few more pieces and put it together, see if I can finish this in the first week of 'this' year 
I also picked up a welder for $50 220 volt 180 amp, it was missing something for the wire spool, simple fix, welds great, now if only I could still weld

Re: What have you been doing during lockdown
Slick project!
Out here I’m looking for ‘seat heaters’ for the 1/3-2/3 front seat in the Transporter and the I’ll install the new seat covers.

Re: What have you been doing during lockdown
Picked up a rough but mostly complete Bugatti kit car. Was going to post a picture, but have no idea what is being asked for in order to do it. Used to be so easy.

I have always wanted a Bugatti kit car, I was 10 years old when I had my first ride in one
