Still wrapped up

A good two days, painting and jobbing.
Got more done than planned and I think solved a mystery concerning unreliable gear selection that has been the cause of a few anxious moments (losing astern drive is a bit like the brake pedal going to the floor in a car). It looks like the solution will be very tricky to get at but not cost very much apart from skinned knuckles and a trip to the chiropractor after the contortions.
