Gregory Gorski:

Assembled V-Express Steam Train

Ralph:

Painted his creation

Jimbo:

Lightly sanded the parts and lightly melted the wax and it worked easier.

Joel:

Replaced the white weight cloth sack with a 1" pvc pipe caped on both ends filled with lead shot all painted gold on the outside. Also added some lead shot inside the gondola to make it hang more true. Balanced weight distribution of the balloon by adding some of the wood weight disk under the balloon. Hand made a knotty alder wood frame to hang the clock and mounted the unit on the wall.

John:

Stained, painted, and applied marker

Kayla:

Stained his creations with chocolate and cherry for a rustic steampunk look

Larry:

Used used baby wipes, mostly water to make any acrylic color turn into a beautiful thin stain. You still need to keep the parts where they go together free of paint or stain. I used bright color's and red is always my favorite color for a sports car.
