    I can do the same thing, but no access to CNC equipment. I have my CNC certificate and such... But every company wants 5 years experience, but won't hire anyone to get that experience. I have a friend who runs CNC lathes and ProtoTrak mills. He makes stuff for me all the time. He is getting...

    DA170 Pipe Recommendations

    Never flown a DA 170. If you want serious kick in the pants, the KS 1090s are it. This is what I have seen in person.

    Fuel tank idea

    Vent 1 tank to the pick up of the other. Cap off 1 fill line on 1 tank, and have only 1 over flow.
