Not quite there yet

The centre plate was tight in the slot and wouldn’t go fully in so we abandoned for today and will attack the slot with a 9 inch angle grinder tomorrow.
Other jobs went well and it even stopped raining and at the end of the day the sun came out.
A rather baffling Tuesday talk about ropes and their construction later and an audience participation splicing session. However after pizza and beer, I am not sure how attentive we all were.
