As some of you may know, the past month of July has been quite an adventure in terms of various things happening to me. First I had a major computer meltdown at the end of June which resulted in me having to do the unthinkable (I'm a former certified Microsoft systems engineer, former network engineer and PC support specialist, etc.) and actually take my PC to the Geek Squad at BestBuy to get it back. That took a couple of weeks. Second, at the same time as the aforementioned computer disaster, contractors were here adding the now fully functional model room/spray booth, etc. and that took essentially the entire month of July to get it completed before I could get back to the bench. Third, and lastly, the past weekend my wife and I decided it was as good a time as any to do some interior paintwork before she headed back to work as an elementary teacher since her summer break was coming to an end. That resulted in all of last weekend being taken up with repainting the two bathrooms and my original office space before all of the summer casa revisions could be considered "done" for this year. Long story short, it is now possible for me to resume my "regular" weekend schedule.
The last week of June, I had a couple of weeks off around the July 4th holiday and I started work on a project involving the Tamiya Wespe and various goodies.
I won't repost all the details (you can see those Here if interested) but here's where it's at right now:
I will finally be able to fire up the paint booth today and get the interior painted and continue work on the interior details. It's been 3 long weeks with no bench time and I'm ready to get back to it!
