    Then we had to make up a spacer between the y of the arm as usually it bolts around the VFR engine.

    Gotta love that array of fine tools there Devo, claw hammer, shifter, pliers etc. I'm sure that 4 x 2 is some exotic timber known for its tremendous strength and not just a piece of plain old pine
