Thanks guys.. Good tip on the wet rag and wiping up the glue. never even crossed my mind! Have been having nightmares about the ungodly amount of sanding in my future :/
Having way to much fun with it, wife is even impressed. She's even finally started hinting about "when you build mine" :)
The design is kind of my own via tinkering with the Kfoundry design software... Hopefully it floats and goes straight!
