Chance thank you very much for the kind words. I try hard and it's nice to know others appreciate the effort I'm putting into Destiny to make her the best she can be.
Well as of today the first area of the recore is ready for high build primer. After the paint goes on nobody but me and all of you here will know she was ever tore apart and put back together. Now it's on to the next area.

While doing the second area of the recore and at a point where I needed to mix up some thickened epoxy anyway I decided to do the cutout for the water tank deck fill. I was pleasantly suprised to find solid balsa in this area but that meant I needed to figure out a good way to dig out the balsa around the perimeter of the opening back approx 1/2" so the screws holding the deck fill in place would not be in balsa.
I came up with a slotted cutter on the trim router that worked like a champ as you can see below.
The last picture is the area I'm currently working on.
