Melting metal on 1 of several 10ft Explosives Magazine storage containers we are building for Orica NZ to be used to store all their ingredient’s for blowing stuff up.
5mm plates to all sides, roof and under floor as well as a spark proof timber liner, custom vents and a cam lock door system.
Plenty of welding on this one going through 2 reels of mig wire and 2 bottles of gas to complete the outer plates.
I always enjoy getting back on the torch between building cars, makes me really appreciate where it all started.

Racing at Huntly International Speedway last night saw us come away with minimal damage, a straight front axle and a great time with amazing people including our giveaway winners Vicky Chilcott and David Lane.
Was such a cool result having Vicky win the Free Pass giveaway for herself and David as David Lane is actually Grandad to my good friends and fellow Huntly team mates Sam Keeling and Brad Lane…winning is in this family’s genes.
Was a privilege to spend some time with David and talk with him about days gone by. For someone I have never met before it was amazing how much we had in common and a number of small world things discovered.
The 411H car and myself came away with 1st and 2nd heat DNFs putting us off the back for the feature race.
Starting off the back I made some early race passes to end up crossing the line in 5th only to be relegated 2 spots for having a wheel over the pole line a couple times during the night. It must be because of how much I love spending time hanging out on the infield.
Also got a telling off from the officials for excessive noise…no idea why that would be 😎
Thanks to the following people as without their help, support and friendship I wouldn’t be doing this,

Graeme, Shan, Jenny, Shylo, Gareth, Aunty Lynda, the Parsons mob, Sam & Harvey.

Also to my sponsors who keep things moving,

After bending what seems like my 69th front axle, new strong backs have now been added in the hope of getting through a whole race meeting without bending one.
Also a bit of Lane Fabrication inspired open heart surgery on the old Schoenfeld 95DB mufflers also completed. Pretty keen to see if its bite matches its new bark...
Next run will be on the 31st January at Huntly International Speedway for the Open Wheel Spectacular meeting.
