almost 90 in the shade of my garage, and being much much hotter inside the vehicle that is baking in the sun the humidity was at 80% most of the day, and high dew point of 77degrees.

but hey, when its 10 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter and the windchill brings it down to -30degrees Fahrenheit, its still only 10 degrees above zero right..wind chill means nothing. just like the humidity..... :Doh:

yay, another idiot that doesn't understand how high humidity effects the temperature... Just because a thermometer does not say it.

No difference than a wind chill during winter..

I could personally care less about the tempature, however due to the humidity, no matter how little cream hardener I was using my body filler was instantly starting to cure...

So I worked on the car this morning putting the 2nd coat of paint inside the box.

almost 120degrees inside the car, so take your 115 degrees and shove it!!!

After the 2nd coat, I got in the shower again and went to the dentist.

I ended up in the chair for about 2hours full of drilling pulling and yanking. Turned out to be tooth 32 (lower wisdom tooth on my right side) was impacted meaning only part of the tooth was showing, while the other 1/3 of it was under the skin and jaw bone. The doctor had to cut some of my skin away on my gums, grind the tooth down to make room, which led to taking the tooth out in 2 halfs. After that was done the digging of the roots was even more fun! 1 root was straight, but the other one had sort of an S curve from looking at the xray.

Ended up leaving $513 poorer (no dental insurance) with a bottle of vicodin (which so far seems to do nothing more than what an aspirin do)

After relaxing out for a few hours, and the sun started to go down I went out and got a 3rd coat of paint on the box.

Probably will have to do 1 or 2 more coats, but a little wetsanding may happen first.

Thanks!

Im one of those that believes if your going to resin and fiberglass a box, or even just resin, you need to sand it smooth and make it look nice and not all rough.

We had 98 degrees and 100% humidity last week. You would probably straight shit yourself if you knew how hot that was.

Than I got the wall all supported in the wall (between the drywall and exterior wall, than made a quick little interior trim around the unit. All screwed to the 2x4 framing with 3inch long drywall screws so I dont think it will be able to be pulled out/in without taking everything apart (and its in my fenced in/gated yard) so it should be safe.

Mission completed :D

20120706_022614.jpg

After that small little project was completed I was actually excited to work on the box in a cool environment.

I think this is where I left off the other night when I worked on this box a little during the ran, and havent had much time since to work on it til last night.
