    Yes we did! We have a new Vice President that has made it his mission to have a lot of events this year. He's going to try and do at least a little something every month and several bigger events during the year. He's has plans to try and get some of the general public to our swap meet at the...

    Today was our "Frozen Finger Fly" the weather was pretty miserable, cold, wet, and windy, but it didn't stop a lot of people. I didn't fly, but I did enjoy a few bowls of awesome chili from our chili cook off. The field was partly flooded from a ton of rain Monday and one of the guys had to wade...

    Well because of Christmas I'm a drone owner. I got a tiny little Blade Inductrix. Actually I got two of them. My sisters side of the family insists on using Elfster for Christmas gifts. When you purchase something that's on someones list your supposed to mark it off so no one else buys it. At...

    Awesome Video Thread

    Kermit has been re-posting some older videos and adding to them. I usually check every Wednesday when they post new video, but I forgot yesterday and missed this one. I still like his line, "When I grow up, I want to be me".

    Not in a little while. The owner of the plane just took his wife on vacation, and it's Christmas, so he is waiting before he spends any more money on an engine and exhaust.

    It was a but colder than 75 here yesterday, but it did make it into the 50's. About half of the north-south runway was flooded from the couple inches of rain we had the days before, but when it's sunny, makes 50, and the winds fairly calm, it's time to fly!

    IMAC Scroll Saw Blade Recommendations

    They are awesome for cutting complicated shapes like this. You still need to sand to clean it up, but for those of us that don't have a laser or a CNC it's the best way I know of.

    IMAC Scroll Saw Blade Recommendations

    I use these, and they work awesome. The .035 Kerf is pretty small if you plan the cut well. I've also found that with a bit of practice and a steady hand you can cut a reasonably straight line with them.

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Be careful with the edges with the Pilot bags. There is basically no padding there and it's easy to damage fragile edges. Ask me how I know this.:( You can also ask my flying partner Tony, he learned the same way I did. Wingtote's have better padding, but they don't make a 120cc sized bag for...

    It's stronger, light, and similar to what's in the rest of the airplane. The stuff I have came from Carf.
