NEVER purchase a Kobalt air compressor!!! I am on my second compressor in nine months of building (app. 27 months of ownership) and this one won't work more than a few months before it needs service.
I wanted to rivet some more on the top left skins, but the o ring for the compressor drain is MIA again and the compressor will not hold air. This happened once before, a few months ago. No air, no riveting.
I began to edge finish the aileron gap seals and flap braces but then decided to mow the grass before Sun-N-Fun. As I rounded the first corner with the riding mower, I looked down and found my MIA tungsten bucking bar lying half-buried in the ground. Yee-ha! Apparently, just before I lost it, I set the bar on the mower and then went to mow the lawn. Now I have two tungsten bars. I suppose I should sell one to another builder. They really are nice.
