Gilbert, another super reason for people to PAY to stay in this group!
Free Standard Work Instructions! People ....Gilbert and I are Improvement dudes we document reality by going to where the work is being done (called the Gemba) and observing. What you just saw above from Gilbert is what we do at work or at home we document what is being done in case ourselves or any one else has to do the job again. A second person (which we call an outside set of eyes) will see things that you may miss. Now don't beat me up for this next part but if your wife or mate is willing to watch and help it's best if that person does not have a clue about what your doing. They need to know to ask questions on why your 'doing it that way" they may think it's a stupid question but it may make you look at it differently. Have them take notes for you, and lots of pictures won't hurt either, like what Rodney did with his control arm project. Also the TPM (total productive maintenance or "preventitive" in this case) about replacing the heater core now as it would be such a huge time consuming job later is another thing we look at. Common sense do not take a shower with your clothes on, many here call it "While your at it". Fact is sooner or later there is a good chance that part may go bad.
Ok, after reading that maybe I will not replace the dash? Sounds like a project, but what isn,t. I will take your notes and then think about it again, I just don't know what is under my dash cover and how bad it is. Whether it,s cracked or dull not sure but maybe I will find out. THanks again for the info and when/if I tackle the job I will be talking to you again. THanks BB78
Gilbert "fix stupid" was not for you...it was for the "Survey"
Wow 45 hours howd you remember where everything went? 12 hours sounds much better, did you remove seats to give yourself extea upside down on your back room?
