Work Day 6 - July 3, 2011






What a day! We are working at Leaflet today. We did a lot of manual labor removing all of the 27 year old decals from the aluminum panels on the railings. The decals are toough to remove but we are having the best luck with the 3M Wood Grain and Stripe Remover. It leaves some adhesive resideue which we will need to remove but is better than anything we have found so far to use. Lots of elbow grease and my elbows have had it! :) Also, we worked on building the engine cover. The engine cover doubles as a seat and a drink holder. It doesn't look like much now, but it will be covered in vinyl and be the focus on the bow of Semper Fi. We stopped by to get a quote to have the engine cover upholstered at a place in Conroe. They were reasonable but we will be gatherine more quotes on Tuesday. We will be spending tomorrow, July 4th, with the family at KC's so we might be taking the cover to see how it fits! Onward and upward!!!
