Only the pics are easy, the build has been challenging. Next build will have flat sides.

The wind blew when I put the primer on, no bugs. No wind today, the population of bugs east of the rockies is down now, and they died with yellow feet.

You're almost ready to sleep in it. Great going! :applause: :applause: :applause:
Still graced with two eyes and ten fingers (due in no small part to luck!).

Just when you think a problem is solved, an uglier result replaces it.

The picture washed the colour out, it is much brighter than it looks. The colour is called taxi cab yellow, though I have never seen a taxi that bright.
