Leo;

   You did not miss anything, sometimes life gets in the way of the best of intentions. I don't have to finish it in record time or need it for any particular reason, so it went on the back burner. Now that the humidity is starting to drop  I can get back at it. I expect it to be ready in a week or so, I will let you know when. Ya gotta remember I don't compete and probably never will so I have no deadlines.   LL~ LL~ LL~

Thank you Billy, I was glad that you have not finished it yet an I am not trying to rush you. It takes me at least a year to build a stunter so I know about not hurrying. I was just currious and thast is what usually gets this Cat. Besides if you do tissue and dope or even monocoat you have to save for that to happen. Yesterday I bought six sheets of silkspane that cost me almost $15.00. at this rate I am going to have to use Toilet paper. If only there was some way to repaiir the peferation! Good luch my friend. H^^ H^^ H^^ H^^ H^^ H^^ H^^ H^^ H^^ H^^ H^^ HB~>

I am not that sold on Polyspan. It is too hard to put on when it gets old. I have pretty much stuck with what works for me.
