New Home!

After a full day of work, I was able to move the project to its proper place, a larger single-car garage. Special features include a folding cloth stand, hardware bins, and plen

Making the Workspace Work

I didn't accomplish too much this weekend, but things add up. Hopefully my dad and I can get the floors coated next weekend. The plane will be a nice fit without wings on and should be able to squeeze through the small garage door at an angle. Notice the hanging cowlings; we didn't want to step on them. Getting them down will be tricky but will be awhile. I'm working on assembling a cloth cabinet to protect it from dust, and it just needs latches. I also set up multiple bins to hold misc. little items (rivets, screws, etc.). I try to look over the plans every night before sleeping to familiarize myself with them before getting to work. Next actual parts on the airplane are nose gear installation, canard, installation, and nose shaping.

Last but not least, the project came with some old radios, anybody know about these? The Dynair is super old, and the 2morrow has some screws missing. I don't exactly plan to use them, but I'm curious about them.
