Dark Diggler:
Fancy a good chrome one :D

tried polishing a stem without sanding it down first, it was covered in little dimples after polishing, had to start it all again. used the z-rim stencils instead of decals, when i painted them the paint got under the stencils and just looked like a blob. when fitting a 3 piece crank the top hat washer wasnt flush with the back of the spider it stuck out about 1mm causing the spider and chainwheel to waggle about, after about 3 hours of doing a basil fawlty i sussed it, sanded it down until it was flush, sorted, i could go on but it might sound like i dont know what im doing :D
