    A quick reminder

    Hey wait a minute now I am sponsored if you can't be wife saying when I can't and can't buy stuff. LOL All seriousness hopefully everything is cleared up now.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    You won't be disappointed. It seemed intimidating to me before trying it but it's actually super simple. I know you like ultracote. When I did your plane it took a lot more heat when going back over it to get it to seal the seams really well.

    Hangar 9 33% Edge 540 Recover

    It works for me and makes it easy to do more complicated schemes over open structure.

    Hangar 9 33% Edge 540 Recover

    Might be kinda hard to see but I have laid a piece of fiberglass cloth down along the seam of the cowl to create the lip. I will let it set until tonight before playing with it anymore. So while I wait it's back to covering. Forgot I still had one more stab and elevator to cover so I figured now...

    Hangar 9 33% Edge 540 Recover

    I hand cut some lettering for the wing. Also got the cowl all prepped so tonight I will be laying in some fiberglass cloth as a lip to support where I split the cowl. Big thanks to @Terryscustom for the thread he did on splitting cowl and answering my numerous emails and texts the other day...

    Fuel Tank Size

    That might be it there. My carden cap doesn't really 3D so it more or less just gets flown around. Does do nice poptops though.

    Scale 1/3 Scale Harvard with Moki 250

    And here I thought all plumbers had to know was "Hot goes on the left, cold goes on the right, and crap flows downhill". :-). So I'm a sparky and just had to do it.

    Hangar 9 33% Edge 540 Recover

    One wing is covered minus finishing the pinstriping as I ran out of striping tape. Taking a break and then onto the second wing.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Lol I was worried about that but with a 1/16" bit it would be difficult for it to grab. I also had the depth stop set on it so if it did grab it still barely would have gone through the nail.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Funny thing is I have intentionally drilled my thumb nail before with a drill press. When I was first out of high school I was working as a helper framing houses. Smacked my thumb with the hammer. Fought the pain and swelling all day. Got home and my dad said you need to drill a hole through the...
