The temps were under 100 yesterday so I was able to finish the covering with Brodak medium silkspan. The entire frame has now been given an additional 4 coats of nitrate dope and is now headed to the paint shop.

A favorite memory growing up was going to Bartlett Lake with my dad. He would take me to the ranger station where they had a large box with a warning sign: DANGER, BABY RATTLERS! Inside, of course would be several rattles for babies.

David, there in an article in today's Arizona Republic about a school teacher who got bit on her thumb trying to shoo a baby rattlesnake out of the school cafeteria. Be careful around them.

You can have my share of both!

Dave, I hate to say this, but it ain't bad, a little Frank's Hot Sauce, grilled it tastes better than gator bites.

It's the first one I've seen this summer and believe me, I give them a lot of room!

Be careful, those babies can really make your day go south!

I'm at the point where lots of dope will be used but the outside temperatures have been over 110 for several days and that is simply nuts to even think about. The only time suitable is the early hours after daylight but when I checked the porch at 6 am this morning there was a baby Rattlesnake, about a foot and a half, there so I have spent the day making the prop. At 3 pm it's 108.

It may have been a Golden Reproductions kit, I have this one too. One of these days.

Thanks, Luke. I built their Fairchild 22, painted bright red, and the Inland Sport which I left uncovered. The Sport was hanging in the LHS but vanished when they closed. This is a fairly easy build, the others, not so much.:-)

I did the Sturmovik from this company, came out great. I love seeing what you can do with a relatively inexpensive kit.
