Time for another update, not too much going on with the build this past week. We have our last local pattern contest of the year and the one I enjoy the most next weekend so I have been busy getting ready/practicing. I was able to get the tube sleeves into the stabs and the stabs all prepped for sheeting. I decided to go into a bit more detail on my sheeting process simply because the process works so well and I think it will be of value to some of you.

The first step is to prep the shucks. This entails getting some 1/4" pressboard and cutting it to match the shucks outline. Then the pressboard is attached to the shucks with thin pressure sensitive tape.
