    So, are you in Adelaide too? Don't try to spray if it is over 30. I have learned that patience can save a lot of time in the end. My next part of the project is setting up a spray booth type area in the shed for the final coats. Weather permitting.

    Not a lot happened this week. I am investigating spray booth set ups. Headstock sticker arrived. It needed a bit of rearranging to fit.Click image for larger version.
