Keep'em Rolling Barlow's Motor Pool build.

OK, there is another item added to my list of things I NEVER want too do again, Spreading and compacting sand. Photos to follow as soon as I can lift more than half of one hand!
 
My apologies to the group for falling behind on updates. I received a call and a rather subtle chewing from fellow hobbyist Archie so i'll get right on it.

I really didn't know how to determine the proper compaction of sand was so I spent many hours running the whacker packer. I would spread around five inches then pack and pack and pack. spread five more inches and repeat. Once I was close to the last layer, my friend whom knows this stuff came over. I filled him in on what I had been doing and after he laughed told me I had probably wasted forty hours packing packed sand.
