I shot the second coat of matte clear, only to have it "blush" on me.  As near as we can figure it out, the first coat needed more than 24 hours cure before the second was applied.  So it is now back at the strippers with, hopefully, a quick turn around.

 Here is the final revision to Craigs cross bike.  It'll be sweet.

 With nothing to paint, I thought I would start carvong up Craigs lugs and bottom bracket.  I rough it with a double cut, then finish with a sanding drum and then by hand.
