    Its all good Simon, its very difficult for Australians to have access to the necessary "Little Friends" required for the Pacino solution.
    And the only giant piles of powder I have access to are; saw dust in my workshop, and flour when the better half is baking. I don't think they have the same sort of kick as Al's giant powder pile

    SO while sand prepping everything I realised that I had to do something about my jack point drilling. while rough it looked and, when I started cleaning it up it looked shocking, so the only real option I have is to fill it.
    I've elected to mix a paste of Titebond and the Matai wood powder I've been saving up. We shall see how it all goes.
