3-6-09 Hot-tanking engine parts.

I've been bashing my head around trying to get the baggage compartment done. I'm not good with my hands. I once made two toothpicks out of a 1 x 6 in freshman shop class. They were supposed to be bookends...sigh. I finally have it almost finished and we're ready to cover the fuselage.

I spent part of today hot-tanking engine parts. This is a heated solvent tank that you put parts in for a couple of hours and then rinse. You can tell by the steamed-up glasses and steam that it's really hot. Works really well though.
