This work session was super productive Lots of gummy grease was scraped/burned off the frame so as not to smear. The frame was temporarily pulled from the shop so that the new tender frame could be placed in its rightful location, behind the main frame.
The frame is to be pulled from the shop and sand blasted October 2-3. It will then immediately be coated with self priming paint, so expect some long hours at the next work session.
