Oops. silent I see what happened. We had 11 images, and I misnumbered two of them as #8.

For this month, I turned on "vote canceling" so you can change your vote if you want.

I would not normally comment during a ballot out of fear of swaying someone's vote, but I feel an obligation to express my disappointment at what I consider an inappropriate picture in number 4. I feel that the "giggle" element may unfairly sway the vote. Sorry, just had to say what I felt. If moderators disagree, please feel free to remove my post.

I think next time I post a photo; I'll ask my niece holding my engine?
Nah, I think my engines are beautiful enough on their own.

By the way, my older brother never approves of how my niece dresses either!
That's what my brother gets for marrying a Swedish girl, (for her mother)
as her mom dressed about the same way with about the same build, when she was younger?

My niece is 26 years old and she thinks she knows better?
I'm not a prude, but now a days you don't want to attract the wrong attention?

Jacob,
I removed my niece's photo (sorry about that guys)
Though she does like to fly here drone in those FPV races (better flier than I) and gets plenty of help.
Her brother flies a drone for a Chicago TV station (his dad works at -- my brother --).

I'll admit, I don't vote here...
Because, I cannot choose each month...
Every entry is great ! Cool

It inspires me to learn how to post photos here.

Thanks, Cox Engine Forum ! Smile

The motor mount is made of 1/4" Sig plywood.
I did a dovetail end so that the corner joint would lock together when glued and would be at 90 degrees when glued.

The paint is 2 coats of Midwest Aero Gloss Fillercoat primer.
Then one coat of Midwest Aero Gloss Sanding sealer.
After that is 3 coats of Midwest Aero Gloss Semi-Gloss Foker Red.
Then one coat of Midwest Aero Gloss Semi-Gloss Clear.

Sorry I left off the Midwest Aero Gloss fuel proofer.

I have many pint and quart cans of Midwest Aero Gloss dope which is still good in the cans.
Also have some glass jars (4 fl. oz.) that are still good.

Now reading the contents label, it is pretty unsafe?
Contains: Toluene and methyl ethyl ketone
