Two down, One to Go

Both will be dope finish with whit being the main color and what ever I can come up with for trim. Boy am I glade to be this far along. Doing to planes in succession is realy labor intensive for this old guy. It seems harder to build every year and my eyesight is a real problem now. A lot of this is done by brail. HB~>

Good looking "bones" But, it looks to me like it's all ready covered in Unobtainium or maybe Ballonium. Balloonium is the stuff that is so light you have to drill holes in it to keep it from floating away!

I keep forgetting to push the leadouts back into the wing when I take pictures. My wife won't let me use paint in the house so no covering or clear on it yet. Hopefully we will get some good weather before long so I can paint. Alsso a lot of high humitity this time of year. and the way tempeture has been latley the painter may freeze. I can see the headlines now. DOPE ATTIC FROZEN TO GARAGE COMPRESER! HB~> HB~> HB~> HB~>

Not only have I become a fair weather flyer but also a Painter. I know about retader but the antifreeze I use to keep me warm distorts my ability to think strait. Not only that but I shiver a lot when I get cold. I like to be warm when working. HB~> HB~>
