Re: Great Lakes Fitness Center

OK, so, I ended up working that Friday, and DIDN'T get to the gym to sign up and I didn't get to talk to the PT guy... :mad: soooo lets be hopeful for tomorrow. On a side note, I did stop drinking MT Dew... I was drinking 6 to 8 a day. It was diet, but still pop. I haven't had but 3 drinks, from Jac...

Mini Totes

So I was in Lowes in Allen Park last night and they had the mini totes on sale for $38. Dont know it the sale is still going on and in all the Lowes, but it might be worth a look for those with soft costumes or smaller armor parts. I know that complete biker fits in one, and I can almost fit Jackies...

Unless your feeling crazy.... :wink: As for which side first, I would do the inside then the finished side. I...

Re: Working /w Fiberglass

I'm partial to Rustoleum. Primer dries fast. Like in 20 min per coat. 1.Put it on light. Just enough to cover so it looks wet. Let it dry. About 3 coats should do it. You only need to sand in between primer coats if it looks like you have particles or small imperfections that will show up on the fin...

Re: Imperial Officer- WIP

If you have a shop vac, or even a vacuum, you can turn it on with the extension and sand in side while it sucks up the dust. I do that in the MC to cut down on the dust.

Looks good so far Heather!!! :thumbs:
