| i'm going to paint it anyways. I sanded it down but it looks like an eye sore. will see how the paint job ends up. |

| Could I talk (type) you into stripping the tissue off and starting over? I hate to see you give up. It was going too well. |

| Great! I've only had to redo parts and it's a pain in the rear (and fingers if you've got arthritis). My method is to use fine sandpaper to get the tissue off the wood. the rest should then fall away. use a sanding block to keep lines straight and a light touch. Patience is the hardest for me, but it pays off. Glad you're doing it. A lot of you guys are reading this - what are your thoughts? |

| thanks guys for your encouragement. i'll use your advise, don, and take the tissue off with a fine sandpaper then retissue it. thanks again. brian. |
