August 30, 2008 3:18 PM Where Ya Been
If you have been wondering what I've been up to. Here are some pictures
for ya.
The rear cowling is pretty much repaired and primed (just a little more
filling to make it near perfect), the engine cowling has been started, the
center carburetor intake hole has a new glass insert, a new MUCH smaller
hole will be cut at a later time. I still need to make smaller exhaust
pipe covers so that they will be the size they were originally. Also you
might be able to see two cracks I repaired at the back edge of the engine
cowling.
Once all the fiberglass work is done, I will sand, fill and prime that
piece.
The front cowling is also under repair. Cracks will be fixed, holes will
be filled and a dash board built after I fill in the cockpit to it's
originally dash depth.
How do you like my suit so that I can keep from itching????
Under the blue tarp is the boat trailer, all covered up for the coming
winter. I will be able to continue working on the boat, without having the
trailer inside and in my way. Speaking of trailers, for those who don't
know. I knocked a hole in the gas meter while moving the trailers around.
(After a call to 911), we now have a new gas meter and a new tool
RIGHT next to the meter so I can shut off the gas MUCH sooner then when I
had to RUN and find something to turn off the rushing gas.. Another senior
moment......DANG
