Winter (painting)

[Atwood, Mark]

Paint booth.  trade off with the spouse...she got to pick the entire house...As long as it had a 13 block unfinished basement with a straight staircase.  I have a sealed off 8x8 paint booth with an industrial fan ducted to pull air from the floor.    Just make sure the basement door is closed and a basement window open or you'll pull ALL the ashes from the fireplace into the living room as it tries to suck air from all over the house. Learned that one the hard way :):)

Yes, I use PPG.

Mark,

How are you able to paint during the extreme cold winter weather? Do you use
PPG concept paint?

Do you paint inside or outside?  If inside do you have a separate shop or
attached garage? Do you setup a painting booth?

Thanks,
Keith Black

I feel bad for you "year round" flyers.  Not sure how you stay "excited"
about the sport.  In this neck of the woods (Cleveland) we have a pretty
even split...6 months of building, 6 months of flying.  Without it, I'd have
been burnt out years ago.

As it is now...come September, October...I'm tired of dragging the plane to
the field...and start to get an itch to clean the workshop, and embark on a
new project (This year is ambitious for me...2 35% IMAC planes, Painting a
new all composite Pattern plane, some comprehensive repairs, and a new
trainer for my son (building from scratch with a 7 year old is ambitious all
by itself))

Come April..and the Toledo show...The desire to get out and fly is almost
overwhelming.  I get to start the season with a whole new lust for the
sport.

On days like today...cold, windy, dreary...I'm jealous.  But in general,
I'll keep changing seasons...and changing hobbies :):):)

-Mark

Michael,

 Sunday, 65 degrees light winds.  6 flights... two on the Entropy and 4 on
the Aries... plenty of fuel... ran out of daylight.

Winter has been here for a while now.  I have about 44 inches of snow on
the ground and it was a balmy -17F when I left for work.  In the center of
the state it was a little cold at -60F.  Ahhh cant wait for spring.  Come
on May.
