I'm glad to hear that my research wasn't far off.

Wow. Masking something that small by hand....props to you! Glad the worst of the weather missed you, but don't get cocky. The year isn't over yet.

Nice haul with the resin! That stuff will make a great addition. As to the clear parts and masking- admire your discipline! We all know I hate doing that
but it sure won’t do its self. And the place looks bang-on. I know what a pain that is. Nice!

Thanks guys!
Lyle- Don't remind me about the year. It's already been bad and it's getting worse for me.
Kenny- I don't mind masking especially if it's the pre-cut ones from Eduard.
