2/28/2015 Chapter 14 Step 5

Dremeled the foam out for the center spar hard points tonight.   There's snow and ice on the ground outside so the inside temp is still in the 50's with a propane heater on and shop is partially partitioned off from the hangar now.   Electric blankets will be here Monday so epoxy work will be less dependent on the weather.  Should have ordered the blankets last fall but thought the storage area was going to be sufficient - but there isn't any ventilation.   Also started working on a heated epoxy pump station that will integrate into the fiberglass cutting station.   I'm anxious to get this spar finished as this foam is really fragile.  The work bench needs to be cleared off so the rudders can be put on the wings of my other project.   I took some time to go look at a couple of Long EZ's that are for sale too.
