I must say how great the operators are Bramwell Station are. They had a basic arc welder but didn't know how to use it and had no welding rods. Luckily I had some rods and the ability to fix it. They let us use the welder and workshop and James and I went about doing the repair.
In grinding up the 'bush weld' I noticed that it was better than the original and probably would have held fine.
We weren't going to take any chances though so we cleaned it up and welded it up properly.
We then settled in and did a massive 800km run right through to Cairns arriving at about 7pm. We gave the camper and car a bath at the local car wash to lessen the dust and dirt a bit. Dropped in to Macca's for a feed, set up the camper had a great shower and good night's sleep.
