Every time it rains, things warm up. I’d be super grateful if the pollen would wash away too.

Lately I’ve been thinking small-size chemicals are nice… but you end up keeping them for years before using them up.
When you finally want to use something, doesn’t it sometimes just not come out?

I cut off the ears first thing this morning.
I masked off the entire tank surface and the back as much as possible, cutting a little, vacuuming it up, cutting, vacuuming up again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it’s clean, the risk is high and it’s really scary. Preparation, preparation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The front of the tank is sitting on a flat plate like this.
It’s funny\u2014even if it crashes, it looks like it might fly off but it doesn’t. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It looks like there’s a backing plate on the inside already? Maybe?
For now I made a backing plate by punching it out with a die. (Just pressing and punching it out…)

When asked if it’s okay to strip the paint and weld it… the answer was still no. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

JB WELD, loved by all of America<\/a>\u2014that’s the strategy: just stick it on with this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
