Building, sort of
Well after months of preparation I'm finally starting actual work on
building my Velocity. It's not much but it is something. I've started
sanding the wing spars in preparation for epoxying the foam to them.
I've done about 3 hours of sanding so far.
| I'm not really
happy yet with the state of the sanding but I just had to get the
leading edge foam blocks out of their billets and place them on
the spar just to see what they looked like. You can sort of imagine wings starting to appear. Well at least I can. Hopefully this weekend I'll actually fit the blocks to the spar and actually start mixing epoxy. My neighbor Duane claims I haven't really started building until I mix up some chemicals and cut some fiberglass cloth. He has higher standards than I do, I'm happy to finally be working on the parts I got almost 3 months ago! |

PS. Why aren't you spending every waking minute writing that tiered compilation we want? %-P

Tiered compilation, what's that? :-)

Like a bi-plane, except that it gets faster and faster, so I am told. %-#
Or possibly like a wedding cake...
