Using a scotchbrite pad, I lightly prepared the parts ready to deoxidine and alodine. Rinsed all the parts and gave them a coat of etch primer. Feels good to get back into the building again, I have been busy with work. I got the building bug again after looking through BAE at Newcastle NSW, and watching F16 and F18 Jets take off in tandem at the airport. What a life for the jet pilots, I envy them.
