For (i = 1; i < smooth boat surface; i++) {bog; sand;}
We are doing relatively boring tasks at the moment, hence the slow-down here and on our Flickr photostream. Tom has been working on the chain way hatch, whilst I have been fairing.
I foolishly used our glue powder (95% aerosil with 5% phenolic microballoons) in the fairing mixture used in the photo below. I sanded it immediately as it cured, but it was still incredibly hard. With the temperature at 39.3°C (103°F), it was an extremely challenging task. Now I’m using a powder comprised of approximately 50% aerosil, 25% Q-cell and 25% phenolic microballoons, which seems to be a good balance between strength, flexibility and sanding-ease. The extreme temperatures have not abated, so I’m hoping that my efforts will be rewarded with the loss of several kilograms in weight. 
Tom
is that longboard(sand); or orbital(sand); ?
If( longboard(sand) == true)
{
rest();
if (count(sand) > 5)
{
replace_arms();
}
}
lol. been there, done that!
Lol, very clever! Yep, longboard(sand) == true.
Judy….has Bob’s site moved???
No, Bob requested it be closed down. I don’t have any further information at the moment, sorry.
Thanks so much for all the information you are sharing! I love following along.
Do you happen to know if Bob is done with plans/boats altogether?
Not sure, I’ll reply here as soon as I find out.
