when i was growing up i polished my dads motor... by hand.  kids these days have it easy.

Your father must of hated you to have you do that lol. She came outside and asked what I was doin and wanted to help. Standing at 4 foot tall she's a whopping 64 pounds and she worked that 20 pound buffer for almost a full hour before she told me she couldn't feel her arms, and she buffed the entire log and snail. Even asked me this morning if she could do the other one after school today.

Any one Need anything polished? Lol

Yah laziness in children is getting worse now a days but the main problem with that is parents. I have been extremely fortunate with this little girl, when I married her mother two and a half years ago we got along but there was always that stand off ish attitude. It seems that my adhd has actually brought us together closer than i ever though we could be, i cant sit still, always moving doing something. If its not the boat, its the RC short course trucks, RC rock crawlers, chevelle, wheeling in my 84 k5, messing around in the garage or just doin things around the house and yard work and all the while she's right by my side. I think my insanity amuses her to some degree but I'm pretty sure she just enjoys my crazy ideas but we are damn near inseparable. And between our shenanigans and her softball and gymnastics this little girl is just like me. Just wont stop or say no to a challenge or learning something new and that's why she's as skinny as an Ethiopian, 10 years old and only 64 pounds.



You know how I know god has a sense of humor........he gave me two girls.

Getting closer, got it cleaned up and all the fairing crap smeared on. Tomorrow will be filled with more sanding and applying 2 more coats of resin. Gonna take Monday off and paint the bottom hopefully.

Why more resin?

Just curious..

If you are using fairing compound, just get it smooth, block it with some 400 or 600, shoot some sealer and paint it. Done!
