It’s gotten to that point of fairing where it’s finally broken us.
We feel like we’re in an endless loop of doing the same thing day in and day out without actually making any progress forward. To be honest, we’re sure it’s happening….it’s just very hard to see.
While Matt is just over the process in general, I had very high hopes of working in our guest head, thinking it was just about finished….only to find out I was nowhere near as close as I imagined. And the thought of going through and doing the entire process over again finally sent me to tears. (Reenacted for the camera)
In areas we ARE making a little progress, Matt shows the steps he is going through to get straight lines where our White Oak hardwood trim will be placed, so that when we go to make the doors, we’re not adjusting *those* to fit the space. This means taking our polyester structural putty and filling in little gaps, so the trim and eventually doors can fit in without much additional work.
Also, Matt gives a quick explanation of why we we’re not going to be installing electronics quite as soon as we thought (and it has nothing to do with fairing!!)
We hope you enjoy!
