Happy Halloween!!!
Just got some work done on the pack and was going through pics to post and realized I forgot to post progress from October 8th. Oops, so this post will be that days work and the next post will be of Saturday October 29th. Let's get on with it!
Got whatever this beveled top corner piece is called all nice and cleaned up. Came out great.
Rubbed down the welds with scratchy paper.
Did the same for all the thrower welds.
Had to knock down the underside of the rear handle weld so the instrument bar could fit flush.
Drilled the hole in the gun body for the top knob. Threaded the hole with the screw that'll secure the knob.
Applied Vaseline to the screw so the glue and apoxie sculpt wouldn't adhere to it. Glued the knob post on and screwed the screw in to keep it in place.
Filled in the underside and then added the weld.
Filled in the gear box gap below where the corrugated hose connects.
That's all for progress on that day.
