Dont get too worried about it boys, its only the dreamers that are going "where is it??" the sort that would love to have one but never will. if you seriously wanted one and had the folding stuff to do it you would be waiting until it was 100% perfect before going ahead with a serveral thousand dollar mod.

all these impatient kents are just wanting something to fwap off to.

Stuff like this takes time girls. if you manage to package something like this in a few months and sell it to the mass, don't expect sympathy when you come on here and whinge!!!!!

sit back and relax and let the bloke work and figure a solution out without the pressure!

O ringing? Or just need more points to clamp down? Good to see the wrinkles getting ironed out.

Considering the extent of this mod, a little leaking is the biggest problem. Well done to Joe and the team.

As for a fix - liquid nails icon_smile.gif

Cool, I can only think that studs would not fix it cause the head was not lifting, thats would be the main reason you would look at studs. obviously other issues.
