Glory at Last!!

Here are pics of Carter's winning pinewood derby car. Carter found the design online, and I shaped it with the bandsaw, spindle sander, and router. 10 coats of spray shellac in the 12 hours before the race gave it a really glossy finish, but it was still wet come racetime, and touching it left permanent fingerprints on the not fully cured finish. This is our last pinewood derby and it feels good to go out on top after so many mediocre finishes!
