Got some painting done.
I decided to leave the arbor supports for this round as they need a fair bit of preparation work and I didn't want to miss what might well be our last run of good weather for the season. Just as well I left them cos it looks like I'll be re-doing the cowl as well.

I don't like painting at the best of times, the toxic stink, the mess, the hours and hours of sanding, filling, sanding, sanding, the cleanup, the stink...to stuff it up like this at the last hurdle makes me want to kick the thing across the yard.
Oh well, at least it's the easiest part to remove, so I can get the machine together and re-paint the cowl later when I paint the other bits.
Just got to resist the temptation to fiddle with things before the paint is dry.
Oh yeah I dealt with the broken tap...
The perfect crime.
