Default RE: First Covering job pics!

Pretty good nitrobasher... Think of it this way, It just gets better with
more planes:-)... But follow the advise on your rudder unless you just
have it on for the pics....

Don't tell whoever this( Mom, Wife, Boss).... I only have a heat gun
and I have not had the greatest results with them.. I usually go a little
to long getting the last wrinkle out :-(.... But... I stole the wife's iron a
few times... And man I sure like it a lot better.. I tested it on some of
the covering that you trim off from the wing/stab, to get the iron just
hot enough to stick, but not too hot.. I start by heating the iron with
a drop of water on it and kept increasing the temp. until the drop of
water starts to boil... then I covered the iron with a thin cloth and
lightly go over the wrinkles quickly and it removed them all!!....:-)
So now when I here.... " D_M it RON"..... I have to find a way to sneak
back into the house and get the iron back in it's place:-)

I hope whoever... Was not to upset with you spilling the stain on your
plane and floor(second pic:-)
