| Time for some assembly (If you are a Norm Abrams fan you know where that quote came from) |

| Looking good! And, "There is no more important safety rule than to wear these, safety glasses!" |

| Hahaha. My real hobby is woodworking. I have a dresser I have to make for my son-in-law but I can't buy any wood in our state until at least May 4 so ....... |

| Looks like we will reopen on Monday. For just killing time that's good work. |

| Thanks. I have had some invaluable help from people on this website. |

| I could use some help on the issue of cleanly cutting out the plastic parts. I used a modeling knife to poke holes around the edges of the cowl which worked. The plastic was thinner around the intake and I wrecked the part. I have more parts to work on. What suggestions does anyone have for me please. |

| Cutting these parts are very tricky. What I do is cut the part out with a little flash left, then sand the flash back until I have the correct part outline. That way you are not trying to cut at the point where the flash and part meet. Sanding gives a lot more control. |

| Thanks Ed (again). I just came up from downstairs having tried exactly that on the spinner. Creeping up on it definitely works. |

| Example of great minds thinking alike! BTW - Guillows sales replacement parts, so if the intake is not repairable, check out their website. |

| I found out a week ago when I tried to buy a 1/16 scale pilot that they are closed down with the rest of our state until at least May 4. I think I have managed to repair the part however.... |
