Brief Description:  Rudder and VS glass work

I cleaned up a spot for the rudder on the work bench and then removed the rudder from the VS so that I could get to the glass tip and put some smoothing resin/bubbles on the tip to metal intersection. While I was at it, I figured I would also do the VS tip inside fillet (some of the fillet had sunk into glass and it was not all the same contour) and the rudder bottom tip needed some work where the tail light attachment was installed. I readied the 3 parts, taped off the areas I didn’t want resin on and started mixing the resin / hardener and then thickening with the micro bubbles. I figured I would have enough time to get all this work done but as I was just finishing up, the bowl was “going nuclear” (hardening!) We will see how the last bit I was working on goes…may have to re-do some of that. Sanding to happen next time.
