Brief Description:  Priming

This morning I primed the rudder parts in pre[peration for priming (1.2 hours. I then setup the paint booth along with the wash stations in preperation for priming. Paint booth setup was about 1.5 hours and washing was about an hour. Had quite a few parts and a not so big paint booth table. I may end up sacraficing the rubbermaid table to get more space, but then again the room isn't big enough to walk around it easily.

Additional problem with the small parts is the air from the paint gun blows them over. During painting I will definately need to spend more time prepping table stands to hold everything still. For priming, it is good enough as no paint will be going on next and all the components are to date internal.

First major mistake. When using a pressure feed cup, make sure to releive the pressure before removing the cap or you will end up priming the walls, table, and yourself. Sacraficed another shirt. Also, the paint suit need to come without feet and you just wear booties. Ended up tearing th crotch wide open on the first use. Ah well, lessons learned.

Also, the Fuji Moni Mite 4 has a temperature sensor that shuts it down if it gets too hot. Try not to leave it in the sun again. Siiting at a pause waiting for it to cool

Completed priminag all components for the vertical stabilizer and rudder. Of note, for the 3 large skin pieces (3 panels it was a 5 on the mixing cup)
