Brief Description:  Paint Day - paint the interior of fuselage

Well....couldn't really find anyone to assist in the move from the basement to the back garage/shop so once again my wonderful bride assisted me with the help of a small garden trailer I have to get it moved into the garage where I have a small paint booth set up temporarily. No pictures becaues we both had our hands full!! I will definately get some strong muscles to assist me when it is time to get it back in the basement...that was too stressful haha.

Then it was getting all the equipment set up. I made a tool that we learned about at the Stewart Systems paint seminar I went to at Sun n Fun last April. I had a cheap drill extension that I cut the end off and welded a short length of chain of about 7 inches to stir the paint. It worked well.

It took quite a while once again to get everything set up. The result after seven hours of prep and painting was an interior that was finally painted! I am glad that is over :0)
