because you love it
and when everyone sees the magic of your bodgery they will be inspired to save other bits of old tat

have a beer and rest your arm for a bit, once it stops hurting you'll forget all about it and have a lovely set of cranks

(then please show us some pics  :daumenhoch:)

You started on the next bottle of red wine yet Richard? You'll be lacing wheels up on the kitchen table next until your missus walks in - worse than being caught with her best mate half naked I'm guessing...... :knuppel2: :knuppel2:

Maybe I should give her mate a call ??? ::) >:D :2funny:

Steve - photos before and after I hope - see yo soon bud with "project X"......... :daumenhoch:
Still limping......
