My package arrived earlier this week and I made some decent progress! The heat has been brutal so work has been a little slow…
The TMW flat pack pallet is a tidy little package, no problem having all my other crap in the way and still getting the wife’s car in the garage. Everything looks great, quality materials and no damage in shipping.
Fit up was pretty easy, just had to knock down the dross around the edges and rib paths.
Adjusting for flat was a little more of a PITA. To be clear it started great, less than 5 thou in the “X” and “Y” direction, but had a bit of a twist in the diagonal, around ~12 thou.
After a lot of hammering and some strategic pry bar I got it down to about 7 thou. Very pleased with that for a DIY deal and just hope it holds through welding! Going to go very slow and deliberate.
Got the 144 rib-to-top “large” tacks done and then ran out of gas… The external rib plug welds and legs are going to have to wait. So far everything has gone smooth and is very DIY-er friendly! I’m very happy with the quality of the kit and instructions, cant wait to finish!
