Good points.. I also think I can fit both wings on the fuse in my garage with no problems which improves the incidence process I am sure... Mainly right now I just am cramming on some other items before my finish kit gets here that will probably take me the entire time.. Plus in Seattle there is onl...

I ordered my finish kit on Feb 2nd with a note of "no rush". Got the letter indicating it should be ready to ship April 15th.. No note yet of any further delays like the ones that existed when I ordered my fuse. Any of you guys getting yours faster? Or aware of any delays going on at Van's ? Thx

Hey, I am in the same place as you. Next step is to mount the wings, but I am going to skip that step at least for now. My finish kit will be here in April/May and I want to get to the canopy during the summer months. I have been on the project for 2 years now and am planning for about 2 more before...

Hey guys, I finally am able to post a fairly exciting update on my project with my first little bit of the RV Grin starting to shine through. The first real major milestone is now behind me ! The garage is now quickly changing shape and getting ready for the fuselage which should be shipping in abou...

Thanks guys. I am really surprised that Vans recommends this location for the conduit run.. Oh well, it's easy to do something about.

Thx

Hey guys, I am finishing the bottom skin on my slow build wings and had a question regarding location of conduit compared to the screws that hold the access panels in place. The conduit lies right over the rear nutplates and the screws stick through about 1/4 inch. My question is does this allow for...

I just went to blogger.com powered by google. Its free, super easy, and acts as a blog as well as a builder log. Just sign in and make updates when you need to. Almost like keeping a log in Word or other Office type product. Its really easy, looks pretty professional, and does the job. All the pics ...

Hey guys, have any of you had this happen to you? It looks like a slight blemish or smear for now, but will continue to corrode. This is the second time this has happened and I think it is due to not complete rinse off of the alumiprep. (Yes I will rinse better from now on) To stop it though, the on...

Looking forward to the next few years of love (and brutal pain) in building this thing. I sware that even though it is a great kit, the slow build would qualify for any 99% rule if they had one. ;-) Anyway, I will post when I can and definitely when I have any questions.. Looking forward to digging ...

Hey guys, I have been building my -7 for almost a year now and haven't been too active on the forums. A few questions shot out on other sites, but this is my first post on Rivet Bangers. I like this string and what it stands for and look forward to being more active on Rivet Bangers. I have been fol...
