Literally waiting for the glue to dry over here. It's 100F and it will still take a while.
Good news?
When the glue is dry, some last minute shaping and then the skin of carbon. Also, while I wait, I can work on the prop blades (now also drying) and the outriggers.... also drying. Guess I will clean up since Mom will be here and the house has gone from hovel to hell-hole over the last two weeks of building.
Is the suspense killing you? Am I going to make it? Will it actually work? Have I - the Great American Badass Bates- finally met with a challenge which I cannot complete?
Stay tuned.
(and, no, I don't call myself that... though, if you wanted to, I wouldn't stop you)
I prefer Wayward Cowboy...
ReplyDeleteEither way, I believe you'll get to where you'd like to be in the end.
The steps between do not have to define the outcome...
Good luck Mr. Bates

Thank you.
ReplyDeleteIt's going to get there, sure, but it won't touch water until race day. Or at least that is how it looks right now.
I have to run on the lake in my underwear tonight (don't worry, it's legal) and then I am off to finish the hull. If I have a hull, I have a boat.
Thanks for the encouragement.
