And this one, was better still! That's 3 for 3! Nowthat's more like it.

Ummm, Tommy . . .Steve and Igot to play with new fabricating equipment. (Successfully, I mightadd.) What did you get
to do today?

So, Teddy Bear . . . how was wiping up all that baby spit-up today?

There's just something so rewarding about knowing nothing about vacuum forming . . . taking a chance and building a vacu-former, anyway. . . andthen havingthat risk rewarded, with near-professional results! I'm pretty happy right now! So friends, thanks for indulging me on thisside-bar. I hope it was still interesting;and I'll try to get some work done on the planes that this thread is actually supposed to be about.

But, to tie it together and bring it back around to <u>that</u> focus, behind the Raiden canopy (in the picture below) is my P-51, still in the mold . . . upside-down in that plane cradle, just as I left it almost two months ago.
