Hi kgtiger! Total agreement with you. The Lost Boys was an excellent flick! And arrr! Thanks for your kind words, they be keepin' me a postin'!

awesome project + reading your posts is as enjoyable as looking at the pictures!

Thanks Origin! Hopefully folks won't be too off putted by my sidetracking ramblings. Thanks for stopping by and appreciate your feedback


I was inspired from a few worklogs in the past to use some sort of a cardboard/posterboard situation to be used as a playground for measuring, cutting and drilling before going to town on the actual panel.
So I purchased a temporary black posterboard, replaced it with the bottom panel of the hull in hopes to use it as a properly guided template.

Hopefully before too much longer, I'll have all the precise measurements of holes and cut locations before the cows come home.

I never understood that saying. Who lives in a place where it takes a good long time for their cows to come home? And who owns that many cows where they'll be worried about them staying out too late?
And where do said cows go to prevent them from coming home at a decent hour?
Is there a nightly bowling tournament stricly for cows I'm not aware of?

I know a fair amount of people, but not one of them own any cows, let alone owning cows who are severely late for everything to warrant such a phrase.
Every steak I ever ordered was always delivered on time. So I wonder why these poor cows are associated with a phrase that indicates a flaw in their character by implying their tendency to be constantly tardy.

Anyway, it's progressing slowly, but progressing nonetheless.

Some random shots of test tubes, ugly holes, cardboard shrapnel and temporary fittings oh my:











Another shot of the EK Res 140. I'm a big fan of Michael Phelps.
But was thinking if he was into watercooling, he'd use something like this, no? Just speculating.



Thanks for checking in! More soon!
