I varnished the canard spar between the nose ribs tonight after I cut and glued the scarf joint for the nose rib stringer. My varnish cover must not have been sealed, so the little bit of varnish that I had left was cured. So off to Wal-Mart's aviation department I went.
I made an intermediate stop at Jane's Field (KANE) in Blaine to sign the paperwork on N43044. I am officially an airplane owner!
Once at Walmart I found the last can of Minwax Helmsman Spar Varnish, Clear Satin. I was unable to find any more 1" foam brushes in their paint department. As I headed over to get my son a snack, he was my patient partner in the night's nonsense, I lamented the inevitable trip to Home Depot. I decided to check the craft department to see if there was an alternative solution there. Boy was that a good idea! Instead of paying $0.63 per brush, they sell a 4 pack for $0.97, even better than that is the 25 pack for $4.98. That's only $0.20 each.
