Lots of Stuff Yesterday 6-30-2022

This week really has me doing lots of rubber work. I poured more masks, packed, shipped, and more.

The masks are in various stages of completion. The Orangutan needs hair today. The Talosian needs its eyes painted and glazed.

Spock ears get shipped today. Another Seemore got cast in rubber yesterday and another was pulled from the mold to dry.

I got my rocket kits parts supplies in the mail yesterday afternoon so I can finish the X-15 Delta kit.

On top of all of that my latest issue of the Model Aviation Magazine came in the mail. I have been a member of the Academy of Aeronautics since 1986 and in all these years my work was never talked about or published until now. I’m very proud and appreciative to  the AMA and Jay Smith for this honor.

I plan to do more with the AMA to help the magazine, and to attract interest to the hobby with a film about model flight in the near future.

I did get another hour into my DVIII RC plane build. I made a fire wall and worked out how I would mount the motor. I got it to perfectly line up with the prop shaft in the cowling. This was one of the many hurdles of building this model behind me.

It was a great day all around.
