Defender door frame botch job complete with pics...
« on: October 03, 2007, 21:01:55 »
I have a door again!  Its not perfect, it wont last for ever but it has a good few years left in it now and all for £14!  Bought the frame repair stuff from VRM metal solutions, came fast and perfect size!

Heres a few pics....









All I have to do now is refit it, fingers crossed it still fits! :D

Nobody has commented on the deliberate (honest lol) mistake.  Where my two sections join in the corner I should have joined them with two 45 degree cuts but figured it didnt matter.   :oops:

Obviously the door card wouldnt go over it and quite possibly the door wouldnt have closed.  Slight last minute adjustment with the grinder and it all fits perfectly now! :lol:
