Look what we did today! Lower front panel repair panel - you know, the bit that rots out because it traps so much water....

We can actually.....we do any repairs to T25s - based in the Midlands though.
Its tidier than it looks. No filler required as we linished it back to blend in then treated to a coat of vactan. Few hours at most to sort.

Its happening but they will be YouTube due to bandwidth limitations of 80/90. Spoken to Harry Mann in the past about this and you will see more videos over time. For us its a case of arranging them. Filming does kind of get in the way of working but we're aware that some jobs might be better shown as a video, particularly if its a job you've never done but would like to tackle yourself. Some just don't demand video and photos will suffice but where we feel its a more daunting task, we will try to film what we can. Chickenkoop and I are working on another project of our own for more concise (and professional) videos in the fullness of time but we do what we can here.
Agree though, might be useful to have a dedicated video links section.

That could possibly be arranged under General - Techniques, Tools and Tips
