Hi Panda fans

I've been away for far too long - so I thought I'd check in and see what's going on.
I still have Graham on the drive part way through restoration. Still stalled on the off-side sill welding.

Other projects have got in the way :eek:

Glasto' is coming up and time to get the van ready - and whilst checking on some stuff for it's MoT I spotted this tip that you might find useful: Soda Blaster For Carb Cleaning & Rebuilding
(Apparently Chinese supermarkets are a good source of cheap Bicarb)

I hope this summer I'll get back under Graham and finally sort out the tin-worm.

Cheers :)

That looks like a fun bit of kit to make.

I'v got a shot blaster but want to make one of these anyway :)

Chinese supermarkets sure are!! I bough 12KG of it whn I got the sulphuric acid for anodising aluminium. I didn't want 1ltr of 90% acid kicking around with no way to attack the bugger if it got out. That was the cheapest place I found to buy it!!

Hi C.T.,

I guess your last post in this section was before my time as you're new to me.

Good to know there's another Panda owner in Wiltshire, my workshop is in Melksham, where are you?

Shall be having a go at making one of those soda blasters, they look very good (y).

Let us know how you get on with the soda-blaster.

I'd be interested in your DIY anodising.
Was it Panda bits that you anodised?

I'm in BoA - used to see a couple of Pandas locally (Holt & Trowbridge) - but not seen them for ages.

Cheers
