    No excuses. Get out to the shop and work!
    That's what I told myself until I ran out of flappy disk material. :lol:

    I'll get back to this, but there is a good portion done now.
    Before and during. Not an after shot, still need some smoothing and filling done. But progress is progress.

    Next step Start at 220 then go to 320. Then prime with high build and 400. Then its ready for paint. Not likely this year, but if weather holds out, I'd like to sand/prime this year
