I've gotta complain Chell, no subtitles for me.

Oh! well I can always get Ady to do the job for me.
Great film though.

That's a touching thought...................

sorry tony you do raise a very valid point,i dont know how far chell can go with that idea,but she will see what can be done.
i think the easy answer would be to do a bleed together sometime,but that wont help others.
to many things flashing up on the screen can be very distracting.steve widdowson is currently working on some graphics of the system state,at certain times of the bleed,these may help you .
regards ady.

Subtitles would be handy for me aswell....... I can't understand those accents!!!

Well done all involved.

You need a funnel that the pipe will fit "up into" (explained in vidio by Kirsty)
Not funnel into pipe.
You can get them anywhere.
The funnel in the vidio has been modifyed.

Can't remember where I got my big funnel, but It's a nightmare trying to bleed it with a little one, the bigger the better. As Haydn said carefully trim it so the bleed hose fits tightly inside, or use an air hose type connector (as is on the video) or similar to make it fit.
You can't polish a turd - but you can roll it in glitter.

Big funnels (18cm) in Wilkinsons for 69p (I think) I got 2 today ( I can never find them when I need).
