Thanks Becky,
now I can still manage the next cutting round too.

Dude... you are relentless. The amount of your patience is incredible. Keep it going.

Thanks my friend for your nice compliment!

Hello everybody,
now there are no longer even 350 pins that have to be shortened to the final length (6 mm), therefore I'll get ready to work.



During the uninterrupted cutting of the 160 pins from the 2nd chamber, this time I no longer counted the pins, but only the beads of sweat ...



And in the end there were about 15 when the chamber was finally empty and I was played out ...



And therewith back into the chamber with the finished 160 pins, with which now more than half of the 456 pins are done, the rest is waste.



And the remaining 190 pins of the last two chambers, I'm going to do, maybe tomorrow.

Keep up the same sprit, Manfred!

Hello everybody,

let's go into the last two rounds, then this stressful chapter is done.

This is the heap of 120,



which is half-finished here,



and is done here.



Then it was the turn of the small heap of 70,



of which the last pin is waiting for the final cut.



And with that, the mammoth program was finally completed. Hipp, hipp - hurray!!!



And here everything is safely stowed in the box.



At this point I want to take a look ahead of what is coming now.
And that is certainly a similarly stressful challenge, because now the 456 pins have to be threaded into the Pin lugs of the chain links, from which then the 8 Truck chains arise ...



So there is still a lot of fiddling ahead of me, but that can't scare me!

Thanks Marcell for your encouragement, you should know me!
Giving up is not an option for me, ever, because my ambition does not allow that.

Hello everybody,
I hope you found and looted all of the Easter nests, and hope you didn't upset your stomach.
My Easter bunny meant it particularly well for me and put 57 Track shoes in my nest.



OMG, wherewith did I deserve this ...
With this in mind, Happy Easter for all of you!
