The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

[pawnshopmike]

I'm not sure if anyone has heard the news but Tim Jesky (Andrew Jesky's father) passed away yesterday. We will miss him dearly.

He always loved seeing us post about the AJ airplanes so in keeping with it, here's the latest and greatest from AJ Aircraft. The new 68" Extra 330SX.

Mass hobby room cleaning today. Enough is enough. I need to prepare for new projects and generally clean up.

Might be time..... Time to clear a work table. My 22yr old son had worked on this Kadet MKII since he was 8(?). He's graduating this spring, getting married this fall, getting his own place this summer/ fall. I could use the space......

He gets in the mood occasionally.

I love the teal color. Teal has been one of my company colors since before I started my company. I mark everything with teal spray paint.

It's not an Ultracote anymore, the entire industry is shifting away from it. This is a proprietary color for AJ Aircraft. They do sell it in 2m rolls:

It's about time. Ultracote is horrible. The color separates. I'll check out AJ's offering.
