https://youtu.be/rUFjdm8hiP0?si=1ZgpXV_rz9zhmCM3 Link to the video of first start on the project. Apologies for the noise, had a fan running to clear the fumes out of the shop. Also just a quick and dirty hand-held phone video so not great quality. So far I've rebuilt the carbs, replaced all the o ...

Got the big monitor set up, but may have to rethink the positioning. It's pretty close to the lathe (dust/debris) and right in front of the thermostat (may affect set point). Problem is, there's not a better place for it that leaps to mind...
