23 April Frames completed (finally)


Monday was a steady day of work on the Hawk at Aggressive Tube Bending, With Van assigned by ATB to complete the welding and install the canopy hinges. Ken Rouble was on the body mounts, drilling about 600 holes is no small task. Werner was fitting the seat mounts in the cockpit and working to mount the Nitrous bottles which he picked up early in the morning. After we finished the welding the whole frame was wiped down with Acetone and a final check of the welds was made. Then it was loaded on the trailer and we took our bay home for the night. Man we are all exhausted but very happy to be finished that faze. Tomorrow off for powder coating. It does look like it would be much work!
