Default Flying blind....

We are having the house pressure cleaned today so I had to move the
C-4 from the driveway. BUT, I'm in the middle of a brake booster change sooooooo, no seat, no brakes, condensation on the windows, windshield and hatch glass. Almost got the neighbors mail box and a guy walking his dog but all is well.

I love to start the day like this.

Concrete tile, not shingles. Just like doing the driveway.

Kinda sounds like poor planning. Why would you schedule house cleaning before you finished assembly?
