Moving right along

The goals list is diligently being tackled and it's only the 11th. This is working out great.

#5 - Finish the mini boat project, is underway.  There are 96 steps and as of today I'm at 32.

First I needed to wet and pin down the base of the boat to give it a little dip or curve in the center.  Just as I had it tacked down; the center support came unglued.  It got re-glued and I let it sit for the afternoon to harden.  Since this is what holds the piece to curve it, it has to be right.

I punched out the parts for the next step and got them all nicely sanded.

It is being left to dry overnight and is holding tight.

#6 - The BH living room got it's first coat of paint.  I see now that the spaces above the windows need more attention. That is the one nice thing about getting pictures; the camera sure sees a lot I don't!
