Here are the photos I said I would put up on my building process. I did good at the begining of taking photos, today, I plained and glued the top sides on and forgot to take photos till after it was done.
The last photo is of the engine compartment. I coated it with epoxy. When mixing the epoxy I put in powedered aluminium to give it a gray tone. I also put in denatured alcohol. I mixed it and started to paint it on. I was going good till I noticed the 'paint' is foaming. I grabbed the container, it was realy hot. I was getting some kind of reaction and the epoxy was setting realy fast. So thats why the paint job is so clumpy.
Ill keep putting up the new photos as I make progress. I should have my motor on Tuesday.
PS
Give me a few to get the photos up. I dont know if I have to use HTML or if there will be an option for a slide show.
(If you take tons of photos and then have to resize them for things like this or to email them, try FastStone Photo resizer. It works great, lots of options and easy to use. Thats how I got my water mark.)
