« on: December 10, 2006, 05:10:37 PM »
Been a while since I posted any pics.....

here is what  I have been working on for FAR too long....mostly due to other commitments......

anyways....just another Vector 40 from a Brodak kit.....  making it take apart tho......hence the uncovered wings etc....

Oh yeah....has a Ares cowl on the front (just plugged on there.....hence the gap) ......just to make it a little different

It's all Good.

Building slower is what happens when the wife has you doing that "Honey Do" list.

Fantastic looking airplane; great work; however, your shop is much too organized and clean.  We just can't have that!  ;D  Glen

Looking good Wynn.
 Missed you lately at the field, hope you can get down for a fly a bit more next year.....We had a good turnout on Sunday, but I could only stay till noon.... Bring it round before you fly her and we'll apply the "Webby" set-up procedure to it, best to decide on the wheels during said procedure. Will explain when I see you....
I've started another Pizzazz, definitely a benchmark model....

Need dto cut appearance points in half with a shop that clean.  Just kidding of course.  The last time I cleaned up my shop I couldn't find anything.  Still after several years I have things I can't find.  DOC Hollliday

Elizio's shop looks great.  Definitely one in which I would be comfortable.  Elizio, I would suggest; however, that you not use pegboard for hanging up your tools.  They're much easier to find, and use, when scattered around on the workbench or floor.  I think that with a few improvements like that, you'll have a "world-class" shop.  ;D  Glen
