Post 27 - Moved Fuselage to Paine Field

Over Memorial weekend, I got a hangar to share and moved my fuselage via trailer from my shop to Paine Field. This is another step towards the end of the build. Thanks to my wife, daughter and sister in law for helping to load the fuselage and Steve Alford and Mark Drake for helping to unload at the airport! Today, Tuesday, I straightened, organized and started again on the access door on the upper cowling. I'll question some of my mentors on the next step of riveting the door...seems easy but I want it to turn out dandy.

Hopefully, the next few days, I'll have music, a little snacks and maybe some help from friends at work to relax at the hangar and work on the list of things to do! Very exciting. Just two more photos at the end of photos .

Post 26 - A little work at home

I know guys. Finally a little work and other post!

I took some time off to do other things for a while. It's good to have a change and get a few things done. It's not a race. I just want to get it done in a timely manner and still have fun. It was getting stressful trying to finish by spring, so I'm getting re-established.

Sure feels good to work on it again. I bought a few air tools, few more parts as you can see from the last photos in picture link also on the right of this blog . Working on the cowling but also measuring and fitting a few items. June, I'll move to a hangar at Paine Field, coming up quickly. Thanks for reading!
