Building a Go-Kart
Will donate this one to the Salvation Army when it's done I think. I decided to use stains for this one instead of paint.

I like this stain; you get to see the fibers in the wood.

I like how the stripes on this are turning out. I wasn't sure whether putting them on the seat was a good idea or whether I should stain the seat black, but looking at the pieces coming together, I think I made the right decision. Now if I can just screw and glue everything together without messing it up...

Re: Building a Go-Kart
Is this made with pine? Then that would be blue, pine and red.
Somehow I suspect this guy does not build with pine.

I'll break open the story and tell you what is there. Then, like the others that have fallen out onto the sand, I will finish with it, and the wind will take it away.
