Missing the Target

So I missed my deadline of having this beast done by derby,  it just didn't happen, I have had so many other things going on, life happens you know, but I have been working on the seat...after the great melt down, i covered the seat in foil, it worked OK, but seemed a little flimsy so i have been going back through the thing and gluing the foil to the foam and it seems a lot more solid now.  The piece of wood I put under the bottom seemed to stiffen it u a lot too...tomorrow i will take the remaining foil off and gluing foil to the foam, this will give me a solid platform to work with...it is heavier than I wanted, but it is a learning process, I may end up with a pile of shit, or it may be great at this point it's hard to tell...I got the paint booth 90% done, just need to get the box fan and filter for it, compressor should be picked up Friday, got the paint out and am ready to paint the seat as soon as I get it done...hopefully in the next week...it's just hard to maintain a house, yard raise kids and work and still have time for this project, but i will get it done...the tank has been fit onto the frame and looks amazing....be the leaf
