Fair Chair OR Those Viagra people have something there!

So with the mask on and the radio going, I have hours to come up with stupid blog posts.....here's a good one, a picture of all the different chairs I use to get to just the right height to fair. (YES, I am bored out of my mind with this fairing crap!)



I am seeing light at the end of the tunnel. As usual, my fairing was sort of stuck in fiddle -fu__ mode. Thanks to Chad, I upsized my fairing board (longer and stiffer IS better!!), went to 50 grit instead of dinking around w/ 80, and am plopping on just a tad more fairing compound w/ each round. I am making quicker progress and can see where the hull will come out pretty nice. My fear was that I would really weigh the hull down with too much bog, but now that I am sanding so much more off at each pass, I see where this is going to be much better.
I would still be at it if I hadn't run out of fairing compound. 2 or 3 more nights and I am in business!!

  1. Heehee- at this rate, you'll still be sanding by the time I get back, and I'll have a chance to catch up to your build. My plan is working perfectly!
