Heading north today I passed  POLAR BEAR heading your way Professor.

I guess this -10 Degrees wind chill is just too much for em.

The worse part is when it turns 55 and Rainy. All my equipment sweats, and rusts. Not a Happy feeling.

Looks like ya'll are making good progress on your planes. How is the cold affecting the covering process? I am almost to the point of covering mine. I need to come up and watch ya'll and learn how it's done. Do ya'll just work on Thursday nights?

We got one a them jet engine lookin things torchin hot air at us adding to the poly fiber fumes and creating a comfortable environment to work in.....probably sorta dangerous too with all them fumes and open flame. DONT TRY THIS AT HOME

So far we have been doing it only on Thur. night but talking around about changing the date.  I will try to keep ya up on it.

I had a wood fire stove burning in my garage almost the entire spraying process....... Never once got a hollywood explosion. Just lotsa YELLOW overspray on everything.

I haven't been taking very many pics man. I haven't been making a lot of progress either:'( ... maybe there's a correlation between the two?
