Update

Its been a while since we last reported any progress on A6581. This has been down to the fact we have been working on weltrol 902103 elsewhere in the yard. Now that it has become hard to progress on that project, we have now embarked our efforts back.

So where are we.

Well the south east axle box has now been cleaned and is now sitting in primer. The tie bar will be completed once the whole of the east frame has been glossed.

The axle has been cleaned back and now sits in primer, with the wheel and tyre now sitting in under coat.

More of the frame has been cleaned and is now sitting in primer. We have been able to progress well on the frame as it is surprisingly dry under the tank, allowing us to progress forwards.

The above photo shows the south east corner, the axle box shining in its red coat and the axle can just be seen in its coat of red. The sole will need a wipe down with a cloth and then will be ready to receive its gloss.
