More fixing

After taking another half hour to scrub off some more packing tape the temp clamp let loose and the epoxy I tried at the end of the main seam cracked. So I am going to try out my new Tech-Bond glue. I covered my clamp in blue tape and filled the seam with glue. I then clamped it tightly together.
I manually held the rest of the seam together and shot it with the activator.
Within a minute I could let go of the upper area. We will see how good this glue really works when I let the clap off tomorrow. If it don't work I may have to tear the dome completely apart an glue it from scratch the right way according the the R4 thread. That would not be fun....
