It's recently had a lot of work done. I'm not looking for a show car, just a daily driver.

on my machine (semi automatic) you set the head about 15mm away from the rim but when you remove or fit a tyre, the force of the tyre pulls the head close to the rim as it all flexes. Gotta be really careful.

Yep, It's a PITA.

I never bothered using the head/foot when refitting tyres. And only ever used a metal head when removing, as the plastic/nylon ones flexed far too much.

C14SE vauxhall engine. I don't know who decided that putting a thermostat behind the timing belt cover would be a good idea. It means removing the cambelt, camshaft pulley, crankshaft pulley ect. Bit of a PITA, but must be done. :( GRRR!

Sometimes I appreciate the simplicity of the mini setup. As they say, appreciate the small things in life :P

You will always have periods where it's dead as where a specific topic forums and if people don't have anything to say about the topic there nothing to post. Hopefully my build thread will be updated by the end of the week.

I always wear trainers at home in the garage, sometimes slippers LOL, but at work I need to wear steel toe capped boots. I've got a pair of cheap black boots. I might try some steel toe capped trainers. It will keep H&S/my boss happy, and reduce the strain on my feet/ankles. :) I'm only in my 20's, so should not be having this problem, IMO.
