Morning all,

Another beautiful fall day here, sunny with a high of 66.  

Still slept late even without the Nyquil.  A little stuffed up, but back to feeling nearly 100%.

The DCC stuff is supposed to arrive today, will prep for that.

Pretty, if chilly, sun and 40s-50s, in MI today.

Have a good day all. 

Have fun with the DCC stuff, Jeff.

More seasonal temps but sunny.  Today we take wife's car to the local mechanic for brakes, since I declined the dealer's estimate to do the brakes.  In retrospect, I should have let the dealer take the extra hour to do the brakes, as that would have delayed me from driving through that thunderstorm on the way home...   Sigh...

I sent a support request to the company that makes Envirotex Lite, and got an -immediate- response.  The more I thought about that, the more I figure it was AI generated.  I asked how to set up a dam at the end of a pour, should I use a release spray, wax paper, or 'Saran wrap'?  The response said 'wax paper should work best." but if that's an AI generated response, HOW MUCH SHOULD I TRUST IT?  Fortunately, this is not a critical decision.  

Basement is drying out, but I'll wait another day for humidity to go back down before doing any test pours.

WAX PAPER sounds better than Saran Wrap The only pour I've done didn't need a barrier so I can't be definite about it. The preparation you mentioned sounds like you're prepared.

Afternoon all,

Still working on the detail kit for Stu's. I'm happy with how things are turning out so far. It's a neat kit.

Have a great one!
