Default Am about to rebuild !

Went out and bought this little gem yesterday -



Cost me £3500 to have my YB rebuilt in 2006. Since then my daughter has come along and money has been a whole lot tighter. As a result, have decided to do the next one myself.......

Any helpful hints or tips are of course greatly received. Positive replies only, I don't need to hear how difficult it will be as I really want to learn to do it myself....

You can buy a book on dentistry but dont make you a dentist. As long as you except people pay Top Tuners good money because they have a skill/knowledge you simply dont have.

Rod that is a valid point. However I wont get any skill or knowledge if I keep getting other people to do it for me !
