I made the long trip down to Gus's place in order for him to teach me in the ways of the "SLATHER" method. Well, first off I want to thank Gus for the great hospitality, and taking an hour out of his day to show us the way out, because we didn't want to go the way we came in! I also want to thank Gus for generously donateing all of his scrap carbon to me for the future. Sorry for the delay in photos though, I didn't get home until 11:30. I was starting to doze off and needed to pull over and nap for awile, then drink some mt. Dew. And, we needed to make a stop at the aforementioned, HOOTERS. "You guys ate really quickly!" (it's 9 o'clock) "we've got a 3 hour drive ahead of us." The first picture shows me cleaning the airframe under the guidance of Mr. Peipenburg. Since I can only attatch 5 photos per post, here goes. The first photo shows me cleaning up the airframe under the guidance of Mr. Peipenburg. "Listen up kids! Carbon class is in session!" The second is me scuffin the airframe really good to allow that glue to be soaked into the airframe to hold the carbon on. We used some graph paper and laid it over the fins to make some patterns. We then cut out a whole lot of carbon to sacrifice to the AWESOME Gods of Mach! Then we painted the airframe with some wet systems.
