    That was just a branch. The overall tree is much bigger. I am cutting it up and letting my son drag it off the driveway but eventually the branch will be too big for my saw or mini excavator.

    More of ‘What did I do OUT of my workshop today’. Big storm blew an oak tree branch on my shop property onto a neighbors driveway. Fortunately they are out of town; allowing me time to at least clear their driveway. Another couple of hours tomorrow and driveway should be clear.

    Yes. Set screws not visible in the photos. Nothing fancy but good lathe and mill practice.

    The backplate is for a small chuck so I could drill holes in a hose bib handle that I made for a customer. Hours and hours of wonderful shop time running 3 phase lathe and mill, money spent on a chuck, aluminum plate, set screws, beer, etc, all to make a 29 cent handle.

    I am happy to find an online description of how I do wing sheeting. Let me look around or I will write it up if I can’t find anything.

    The wing sheeting starts with having the correct wood. How is your balsa stock?

    Finally, the 20 or 30 days of nonstop rain are ending except we are switching to full summer mode. Mid 90s this weekend and humidity will be off the charts. I may not fly until fall.
