The wind did not pickup to the point where it would have been fun to wing - so after running errands today, I came home and knocked out some projects in the garage.
First I took the deck pad sections I had templated and cut out from raw EVA foam sheeting, and used the bench sander to chamfer the edges. Then I stuck them on the new wing board. I didn't take pictures of this because Noe was the only other person home and she was taking a nap. There are pictures of the board below, but it is underneath the other project I was working on today.
Prayot was having issues with his 5.2 wing. I swapped out the center strut bladder and all is good (kinda - there is a slow leak in the main bladder somewhere also...).
I also fixed the 5.2 bladder and an extra 6.0 strut bladder so he can use them as spares.
Did you see the deck pads on the new wing board?
I also trimmed some of the lifting grip deck on the skinny 4'10" and changed out the rear deck pad. I had gotten a new wide Creatures of Leisure one at the Kailua HIC today.
I also mowed the lawn, weeded part of the back lawn and cleaned up the garage. Funny what you can get done when the wind is down.
