Wow! All this to restore 1 Land Cruiser? I hope not. That system is amazing! Mine just a bit less sophisticated I guess...

Spend some time cleaning and reorganising, still difficult as the tub is hanging in the middle if the shop.
Started with the jig today, cut some steel for the main frame. It will be bolted together so it can be stored when not in use.

Next up is some pieces to cut out.
