Now I have much better access to one of the windshield mount bolts. Finally, switched out the 12V cigarette lighter outlet for a Powerlet one. The Powerlet unit is a smaller diameter so I got to spend some quality time with the lathe, machining a pair of adapters. This was also a good time to coat the electrical connections with DeOxit. Tomorrow I'll measure the sag at the rear. I'll also fab up a mount for my Garmin GPS. All this is in prep for a trip to Horizon's Unlimited in Appomattox, Virginia next weekend. I bet I'll have the only Zong there!
You've been a busy guy, Peter.......but where are the pictures!

And I'm sure the folks here would like a report on the Horizons Unlimited gathering, too.
