What is it about this hobby that you go through a couple of days of
thinking
everything is sorted and happy and then something else jumps up and
bites
you?????

LOL, in my experience the interval between crisis's increases with
practice and experience. Everything can be running great for many years,
and then perhaps from a combination of complacency luck and wear & tear,
it goes to hell in a hand basket. I get bit every few years. The front
of my 120g opened dropping 50g before the silicone pulled it back in.
That was fun *not*. I guess if it was too easy, it wouldn't be as much
fun? ;~)

Very true. We would move on to something else more challenging in a
flash. Sometimes we like to push things to the very edge, even over, and
then pull just slightly back and admire our achievements. They wouldn't
be achievements if there were not risks attached.
