Good to hear things have stabilised on the health front
I'm liking the tool rack, most pleasing and very useful

Many thanks, the tool rack has attracted a lot of attention, especially on the engineering forum, guess no one else paints them to look bright!

Because I had a hole load of billet be rude not to use it right? Exactly so I have started a water pump pulley, then I will make a VX power pulley 21 tooth, then finally the water inlet that I prototyped a year or so ago, enjoying my new kit and the practice of machining.
Because I don’t have one big enough bit of billet, I will make a hat then the grooved disc, then I will assemble and friction weld together. Then off to the ballancer and then hard anodised finished clear.

2. My own paddle shifters, CNC out of ally, the switches 3d printed and all hand finished, inc wiring
3. RS door pull, like the rennline 996 ones

Completed steering wheel, boss spacer and paddles, need to add 3ohm resister in line, for the airbag loom and swap out the tiptronic wiring, they run a single pole double toggle, eg each side is up and down, i have up right and left down......

I will change the paddle bracket, once its all working, i feel it should mimic the angle of the steering wheel, might even taper it as well, still like everything its taken ages just to get here.
the boss shown is the spacer no the final boss, subject to paddle/indicator position will determine how deep the spacer needs to be, then i can machine down to perfect spacing.
