Day 2419

 I woke up at 8 and played games for about an hour.  Then it was up for pt stuff and breakfast.  After that I went out to the shed to work on the Kraton.

I started by soldering bullet connectors on the B6.4's ESC.  They came out well.  I'm getting good at soldering connectors.  Then I found some screws that I'll use to attach the heat sink to the Kraton motor (I still needed the clamps).  I couldn't finish the LEDs because the heat shrink I bought yesterday was too small.  Si instead I started installing the aftermarket front hubs.

I put up a YouTube video on the process.  It used similar parts to the one I was using.  The whole thing went reasonably well with only minor hiccups.  The result was elimination of the wobble that was in the front end.  I'm happy.

I finished up by making a shopping list.  I'm tired of having to stop something because I didn't have something.  To help identify what I needed I made a list of all of the things I need to do to finish the Kraton.  The shopping list had four items.  There's half a dozen others on order.

It was getting too hot to work in the shed even with the fan.  Eventually it got to 95.  I went back to the trailer, got Ellen, and we took off to do errands.  We stopped at the post office and picked up packages and mail.  There were some parts, so I can work on the Kraton todo list.  Then we stopped at Brooks HW for Kraton stuff, the Salem farm store for strawberries, Harbor Freight for heat shrink, and Mickey D's for lunch.  After that it was home.

It was way too hot to shoot or work outside.  I spent the rest of the afternoon surfing and watching videos.  I did order the last thing I think I need for the Kraton.

Ellen fixed chicken for dinner.  She started a fire.  I made her take the pan outside until the fire was out.  I figured that was better than using the fire extinguisher.  I spent the rest of the evening watching videos.  I'll only be able to use the StarLink tomorrow Wednesday it goes back.  Ellen ordered one for us today.
