    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I finished putting my Hangar 9 Extra back together tonight and ironed out the wrinkles for the hundredth time. That means all three of my gas airplanes are ready to fly!

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Technically a third of it does. The layout belonged to my friend Carl and when he passed away he left it to three of us. The other two guys are friends, but we have totally different ideas on how to deal with it and I'm always the odd man out. I've some what washed my hands of it for the most...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    For years there shipping was a flat rate of $2.95 which was really a deal. It's a little higher now, but still not bad. It's worth it to buy good quality stainless hardware at a great price with awesome service. I have probably half of what they sell already and keep buying more. Every time I...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Well I guess David didn't buy them out, because my order arrived today.:) I did the math and I spent just barely over 5 cents per piece including tax and shipping on 374 pieces.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    That would be awesome, but I hate to take your plans and then not use them. Let me stew on it a bit. The P-51B or the early P-40, the Tomahawk, would be my choices from his plans.

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    I replenished my heat shrink tubing. The box with red and black is the marine type with epoxy in it to make it waterproof, or as close as it can be.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I feel the same way, I need to make some kind of decision what to build. I want to something scale and use my DA50. I've done quite a bit of searching and there just isn't a lot of plans for planes out there that would fly well with the 50. Everything is either too big or to small for it. Jerry...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    The new wheels for my Hangar 9 Extra came today. I'm downsizing from 4.5" to 4". I liked the height, but unfortunately they were too wide and rubbed the wheel pants even after making the opening as wide as possible.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Mine at home hasn't been off either. I'm not going to go around opening all the windows just to close them and turn the air on in the afternoon. It has a thermostat, if it needs to run, it will, if not it won't. I'm way to lazy to keep opening and closing windows. ;)

    I took a sweatshirt to the field with me Sunday. I never put it on, which is the perfect temperature day. Cool enough in the morning that you think you may need one.:)

    I had forgotten where I got that tank mount so I had to check. It came from 3D Hobbies, and it's made by M.A.D. Fab.

    Show Me the Biplanes!!!!

    Same here, I change my mind on what to build weekly it seems. Biplane, warbird, 50cc pattern plane, something custom? I drive myself insane.
