UPS says they're on the front porch! Everything but the DRDT-2.


My preview plans and sample projects are supposed to be delivered today too, but I don't have a tracking # on them.

Holy cow I'm excited!

ohhhh they're great!


I built my toolbox already! I'll have some pics up soon. I didn't take many pics during the construction of it, sadly.

I looooove the pneumo squeezer! It's the best :) Still getting the hang of bucking rivets, but I'm getting better.

Yeah, it's getting there. I built three of the 8x3 EAA tables, and ran compressor hardline. I'm building in my garage, I have a 2.5 car garage with individual doors, and I have the table set up on half of it for the moment. I have to clean out the other half before I use it. I figure the empennage will give me plenty of time to do just that.

Oh yeah, that sounds good!

One car bay will be plenty of space for building the tail.

Make sure ya have lots of light in your work space. I'm working in my garage too. The first thing I did was put in a bunch of lights ... as someone once said "to rival the sun" ... well maybe not that much, but lots of good bright light all over the place with minimal shadows. 8)

Let us know when you get the emp kit!
