Chris,

Welcome.

Where in the world are you?

You would be surprised how many people will lend you tools so that they can vicariously enjoy someone elses build.

Air-riveters are awesome. Actually riveters about the best air-tool in .... the world.

Hi Fellas
I have been building a J15 since March having built a Tiger a couple of years ago, i keep the chassis on axle stands, it will be on its wheels before the engine and gearbox go in, nuts and bolts you cant beat screwfix although you sometimes dont need a 100, i try to use stainless for the pretty bits but they are not rated to 8.8 strength so not for use anywhere structural/load bearing i have done most of the panelling the chassis is a work of art but there are some akward holes to drill for rivets and the 200 plus 4.8s in the floor take forearms like popeye air compressor could be a good buy or at least a lazy riveter.

Hi Matt,

Sorry, missed your question about where in the world I am.

I'm based in Chandlers Ford, in mid Hampshire.

Haven't moved onto the chassis yet, still tinkering with the Duratec and trying to work out which sensors do what and which I can ignore!
