Ugh, I think we all whimpered when you did that.
The 15% you got is still just incredible to me. I'm hoping beyond hope that I might get 10%. *fingers crossed*

After lugging my toolbox to the new job this morning, I got around to working on the t'ailer. As is typical, I didn't get quite as far as I hoped.
On the plus side, I still have tomorrow yet.



I pieced together leftover black coroplast for the forward bulkhead. I'm using Duro super glue. It works pretty good. decent peel strength, and really good sheer strength on the lap joints. I've temporarily taped dowel rods onto the face of the forward bulkhead to keep it somewhat rigid until I install the skin.
