Back at it

Post by tmbg »

I know, I'm a horrible fair weather friend, but I'm back hard at work and I wanted to check in :)

I'm finishing up some odds and ends before I start cutting my canopy. Hopefully I can paint my interior this weekend.

My goal is to have the canopy complete before the weather gets cold this year, and to try to purchase a prop.

Getting there... I need to get the motor on a stand and start messing with it. It's got an aft facing sump, and I'm pretty sure I can convert it to forward facing, but I need to pull it and bring it home so I can cut on it a bit :)

Keep plugging away Ian.

Are you coming to the Black Otter again this year?

aw man I really wish I could, but an OSH trip is too expensive to make this year :(


Maybe I just need to buy commercial tickets and fly up for the otter and home again ;)
