| Subject: | Latex Paint Rolling Video |
I just finished a new video on applying latex paint with a roller. After th
e sanding and polishing process the results are nearly as good as spraying.
Both methods, spraying and rolling have their advantages.
Spraying gives the best finish, it=99s faster for big areas, and requ
ires less sanding to smooth the orange peel. But, you need spray equipment
and a paint booth the contain the over spray, and you need to mask parts th
at you don=99t want painted.
Rolling is faster for smaller areas and requires no masking other than alon
g edges, it needs no paint booth or equipment, there=99s no over spra
y. But, it requires more sanding to remove the orange peel and while the re
sult is quite good it=99s probably not quite as good as spraying.
Have a look at the video and let me know what you think.

Hello Piet Builders,
With hope, I've attached a link to a U-Tube video that I hope many will
enjoy this season. CBC Radio broadcasts this story every Christmas Eve.
I've also attached a photo of my Pietenpol project to ensure this email is
not off topic.

*The Shepherd* relates the story of a De Havilland Vampire
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havilland_Vampire> pilot, going home
on Christmas
Eve <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_Eve> 1957, whose aircraft
suffers a complete electrical failure en route from RAF Celle
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Celle> (note: in fact, Celle had ceased
to be an RAF station less than a month previously) in northern Germany to RAF
Lakenheath <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Lakenheath> in Suffolk
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffolk>. Lost in fog and low on fuel, he is
met and led (or shepherded) to a disused RAF dispersal field by the pilot
of a De Havilland Mosquito
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havilland_Mosquito> fighter-bomber
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fighter-bomber> of World War II
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II> vintage, who has apparently
been sent up to guide him in.

I'm surprised nobody posted the one that shows up this time of year. It goes like
this:
Santa was getting the sleigh, harness, and reindeer team all ready for Christmas
delivery time but before the rig would get signed off for the flight, the FAA
inspector had to go over it and Santa would need a checkride to get current.
As Santa went inside to get his logbook and paperwork all in order for the inspector,
the head elf snugged the last of the harness buckles as he worked his way
aft to the sleigh, and then he watched as the inspector took right seat and
cinched down his seatbelt. Suddenly his eyes got as big as saucers as he noticed
the inspector tucking a shotgun down under the blanket that covered his legs
for the open cockpit ride.
Noticing the surprise on the elf's face, the inspector turned to the elf and winked
as he whispered, "Santa doesn't know this yet, but he's going to lose an
engine on takeoff..."

I've still got the 'spirit' 767 poster with the piece of ribbon attached here in
the shop somewhere.
I remember when we bought the DC10s because Lockheed was in such bad financial
trouble. We should have kept them instead of selling to United and leasing back.
Oh, well. Hindsight.
Happy holidays to all who see this message. Thank a serviceman for keeping us free
enough to read it, and a teacher for giving us to tools to.
