    Nobody fishing?

    2 days ago I took my neighbor to our fishing hole just to show him around. I cast for about 20 minutes. It was ridiculously hot. But, I hadn't been fishing for three months, so I was glad to go. And now my right arm, shoulder and wrist are pretty painful. Old guy. 😏

    Whatever you install, make sure that it has virtually instant access to what the cameras are seeing or what the alarms are sounding about. It's important. I bought some cheap security cameras and they work fine, but they're slow to link to the Wi-Fi when alarming. Day before yesterday, a...

    Got the console paint job finished. Sprayed the last coat of blue on the console this morning. Worked nicely. And I bought some aluminum metallic for the inserts and they look great after being painted. The picture doesn't do them justice. The color really matches well with the gauges. I'm...

    I just went out to the garage and mocked it up. I think the white is a bit too stark, so I'll look around for an off-white or cream color.

    :LOL: The console was originally beige and the inserts were black. I mocked the black inserts into the blue console and it was just too dark. I wanted to brighten things up a bit.

    Well, the raindrops just evaporated and left no trace, so all good there! I need to spray another coat of each color tomorrow morning, but so far, so good. :cool:

    It rained on my fresh, wet paint!

    Hi guys. I'm back home now. I was on the 3rd coat of Krylon Fusion All-in-One spray can paint on the plastic console on my boat. Got it done and went in the house. I had it hanging from my rear garage door. Bright blue skies, no clouds, about 85 degrees. Went in the house for breakfast...

    What to do? The only thing I can think of is to let it dry, then deal with it after that. I did catch it quickly. Any other thoughts?

    About 10 minutes ago, while I was sipping coffee and watching the news, it started to rain with bright, blue skies and full sunshine! Typical Florida. A single cloud apparently popped up right over our house and rained on my fresh wet paint! :cautious:

    Went back out about 1/2 hour ago and sprayed the 3rd blue coat on the console and the 2nd white coat on the panel inserts.

    Went back to the garage this morning. Got the 2nd coat of blue onto the console and the first coat of white onto the console panel inserts. Did a little cleanup, then sprayed the 2nd coat. Panel inserts cleaned and prepped for paint. First coat of white sprayed onto the panel inserts...

    Starting to feel like August

    Yeah, it's been in the upper 80s at bedtime here, but down to the mid-70s in the morning. Humidity/dew point has been through the roof. Thinking more about it, I guess it really isn't August yet, because it'll be in the upper 80s or even low 90s when we get up in the morning then. 🤪 I was...
