So quickly painted her up and took her out to fish for a few. Phew, glad I scratched that itch and can now focus on finishing the carving.  Hahaha 

The blank kept saying let’s go fish, let’s go fish. I couldn’t say no…….

Prototype glide #1.

Molded and poured first blank. Made a glide to start testing with resin mix and weight. First one is super slow sink, great swim. Will try to get vid in the next few days. Next will be a 3 piece and than a lipped wake as I figure out the balance.

I use alumilite. Some people don’t like it or talk smack about it but I’ve never had any issues. Always done the job.

Yeah I have been using SRC and it's good but I'm almost out and wanted to try alumalite white so Jim from there sent me some to try out. It's why I was asking never tried it. But I'm going to give it a shot. SRC I found is very strong and its what I have used for a long time so trying something new I nerv racking lol!!

I’m so bad. Totally meant as a tester. Instead I tune it, paint it and ready for clear. I gotta stop making myself toys and get back to work……. Haha
