4/10/2021 Work Session

On hand today were Dick, Bob, Paul V.S., and Alden. Our compressor is back, having had the bad water pump replaced. Bob and Paul worked largely on fitting the rear panels to the cab. This is beginning to take shape and is going to be quite a showpiece. Bob figures we are going to want to have some of our heavy-hitters on hand for cab riveting in about four weeks. I'll send out a special request for volunteers when a date is firmly determined. Alden and I removed the remaining doors and framing from the old tender tank. If the weather stays in the 50F range, we will want to use Lead-Out paint remover and then needle scaling to clean these, maybe next weekend. Most critical to advancing the tender project is the arrival of the new tender springs.
