The trick was to stop the wee monkey removed the screw, taped over with strip of black tape over the screw.
One of those suits like in 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest' would be better. You know, those where the ams get fastened in.......

My search for a mobile welder person has hit a dead end.

The guys that can do it require a 240V power source for their equipment which, helpfully, I do not have. I thought I'd found a company in Windsor They have a Landrover equipped with power source and gas eqipment. The only thing they don't do as a mobile service is ... you guessed it ... vehicle repairs.

Grrrrr. I have a week off this week and thought I was going to get this sorted finally!
So, to cheer myself up, I have a new cuddle toy
This is my bear. His name is Bruce. New cuddle toy on the left

Dave,
can't you just borrow or hire a petrol generator for the day.... your welder can run a mig off one of those.
Nice cuddly rotor housing... how long did that take you to make?

I'd suggested that to a couple of candidates and they dismissed the idea saying that a generator wouldn't cut it. Maybe they just didn't want the work anyway?
