Always have a proper plan.

I had meant for this to be a quick prep-course and thus did not draw any plans, not even a finalised design, just a rough idea of what I wanted to make. This made it difficult to work since I did not know how large a particular area had to be and wasted time sticking large blocks of foam together and grinding them down to a desired shape.

Without dimensions, parts were made as is and do not fit together. Many areas were not accounted for, under the seat, gaps between seat and tank, these areas were instead filled with clay, which is a waste of money as clay is expensive.

Having come this far, it is too late to stop and start over again. But these lessons must not be forgottened.

1.No plan, no finalised design, no dimensions.
2.No dimensions = wasting time grinding down huge blocks of foam into desired size/shape = improper fit.
3.No support rig for frame, or proper jigs to mount foam onto frame.
