Finally!!!

Post by rv8or »

After a ridiculous 21 months that included 2 job changes (one voluntary, one not so much), and 2 residential moves (7 wasted months of no building in an apartment..okay, I built one aileron)...

I declare my wings complete (tips/nav lights pending)

Thanks for the help along the way so far guys; you know who you are & you're the best part of this addiction.

Congrats, Joe! :thumbsup: Does this mean you might have a set of jogs that you're no longer using? :wink:
