[Gruff]

Vac form looks really good. Keep up the good work, it's coming together nicely

wow, way to turn lemons into lemonade!

Going slowly with this as I'm only working on it between other jobs

Some trimming done, I've left the recess on the back of the front section, this will fit under the back piece. Also cut another 5 mm off the rear piece to get rid of the curve left form vac forming, also leaves a small chanel for some bondo or ABS paste.

Final adjustments made, glue is on, you can never have enough magnets

[gmrhodes13]

Glue dry, magnets off, sanded all over to get rid of any glue residue and also give bondo and primer something to adhere too.

[gmrhodes13]

A touch more bondo and then should be ready for some primer/filler

[Gruff]

Looking really good

[gmrhodes13]

Looking really good

Thanks bud

Now with a coat of primer to see how it's looking, a few pin holes to touch up then a few coats of primer/filler when the weather warms up.

[Gruff]

That is a sexy looking bucket
