  • One Year Anniversary

    It was one year ago ( May 8, 2013) I sent my check to Bob for my plans. Since then I have built work tables (3), a router table, countless form blocks, and other tooling. I cut, formed, de-burred, etched, and primed all of the ribs and attach angles. I have riveted the stiffener angles to the ribs and joggled those that needed it. I have finished all 4 spars and located the strut steel. I have made and uploaded 20+ videos... And, as of yesterday I have my very first assembly that looks like an airplane part! It's been a busy year and there looks to be no end in sight! Thanks to all who have offered help and support, it's truly a honor to be part of such a great group of people! Onward!

        From all that I've been taking in, your progress is outstanding!

        And yes, your videos are truly an inspiration to many of us proving that yes, with only a basic collection of tools for the most part and a work space, it can be done.

        Thank you-
