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

I saw it, looks interesting. I have a bunch of Tygon on hand already so I'll be using that. Is the Sullivan stuff transparent?

Now it is not. It is a solid colour.

Well this morning was pretty messy (you don't want to know) so I had to stay home from work. Inbetween trips to the bathroom I managed to get work done on the Edge, I just need the right prop, some good wheels, and away it'll go!!!

Cowl cut and clearanced.

Wiring tidied up, ready to go-ish.

And I had to put a new AC compressor in the van tonight too. Surprisingly easy when everything is torn apart

A little slab action. I'm digging the colors. Reminds me of the gravedigger monster truck.

Looks great! You don't have far to go now. Nice scheme and good striping job. I hated striping on my planes, but it does make the difference. Put some gravedigger decals on it. That would be sweet!

Nothing to striping once you get a rythem down.

No airplanes last night, but my van should be blowing cold air real soon

That is packed tighter than a can of sardines! I have scraped a few knuckles on vans in my lifetime

It's actually surprisingly spacious as far as working on the AC components once you get the overflow tank and the airbox out of the way. I was happy that removing and replacing some of the components was as easy as removing bolts, no tight spaces to have to reach through.

This is painful it is not quite 50 degrees and raining again still have the heat on in the car and Xpress needs air. I am jealous. Just came back form South Carolina and it was sunny and 80 degrees plus. I need to move.
