| More running to town today, got the photo positive made. really just to a 600dpi printed word doc hard copy to kinkos and for |
|
| $.85 they copied it on to a transparancy. took it to the screen burner who said it would be perfect and that I could pick up my |
|
| screen tomorrow $35!. Went to town to order some custom ink, and the silkscreen supply place advised me that it would be |
|
| cheaper and just as effective to use sign paint enamel, so I got 1/2 pint of black and white to (make grey). It cleans with mineral |
|
| spirits, no catalyst, no 2 weeks to wait for custom color matching and everything including the scueeqe was $25!. Got back and |
|
| this afternoon I began sanding the lower cowl. Yesterday I built it up to provide a more attracive and blended transition from the |
|
| old cowl to the induction ring. Previously there was a slight inward bow from the junction to the ring. i filled that and put a gentle |
|
| outward bow. While the transition is not what I would do if I were building the cowl from scratch (NOT!) It's as good as i think it |
|
| can get given that the Ram air canisters size requires a slight 'bulge' on the bottom. Talked to Rod yesterday and he said that the |
|
| machined induction ring should be here by late this week or early next week. I'll prime and sand this and then layup a 2 ply 'mold' |
|
| for Rob so others that want to go this route can save some time and effort. |
