I've had a great one!
Managed to balance 2.1m x 1200 ply on my head to do the interior roof liining whilst balancing on one leg getting it to fit into the joiners!
Learn't about using foam backed fabric to cover the join between cabin and living area!! ( great stuff good for streching over dashs also ), sourced a cabinet maker to build the cupboards and shower/shitta zones. Had the engineer come over for a couple of beers and to let me know that I'll come out of engineering and rego with change out of $1500.00.or less !!! yaaaaa! ( no gas yet ). Got my bullbar, grill and headlight surrounds back from the spray painter, buillt myself a mini tower computer to fit to the moover ( rigged to a 17" lcd monitor with wireless printer fax ( 3g ) bits, fitted larger window to moover door, spent a day with two Austrian backpakers down at Port Arthur and managed to win $626.00 on Keno!!! I guess next week will be better.

I've been "busy" last couple of weeks too

standard van is currently being sanded ready for paint and hope to fire it up next week if weather stays fine

custom van has had the spoiler done and am now remounting the running gear (i lifted the back so have to lower the engine), then the little bits like cables, hoses ... then also hope to fire that one up in a week or three too
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"
