    Yippee! What the postman brought

    LOL. Yeah the fence will be on both sides of the house. One side is right at 50' long and the other side is going to be around 35' long. Then also got piece of split rail fence to place a 90 degree corner fence on each side of my personal driveway where it meets the shared driveway with my...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Old fence is already half down so its gotta come the rest of way down then new be built. The white box just has the boxes of screws in it. If you look in the second picture behind the car you can see the old fence and where I have some of the orange construction fence up in its place to keep the...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    I ordered a bunch of wood but I think its the wrong kind to build an airplane with.

    At some point I plan to get an actual track saw but this works well.

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

    Continuing my shop move and renovation I repaired one of the lower cabinets and made a work surface for the top of it. Had fun using my homemade tracksaw setup for my circular saw.

    What do you use for a work stand

    Thats pretty slick. For my sanity could you please scrape the stickers off of the conduit. LOL. As an electrician I was taught early on that its easy to make all of the conduit fittings line up when running multiple runs next too each other but not so easy with the stickers and to scrape them...

    Little by little the shop is coming together. Got the two lower cabinets set in place. The one in the second place needs some repairs and I need to build a top for them but it’s getting there.

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

    So hanging cabinets in my shop finally gives me a place to store this busted 1/4 scale cub until I get time to repair it and get it into the air.

    Dual Rates Set-up

    Its all personal preference. I have a couple club members that like to set each control surface up to its own rates switch but I personally do not like that. I believe in a more simplistic approach and have them all on a single 3 position switch on the right side of the radio. Really this holds...

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

    Honestly I have barely ever flown the plane. It was giving to me by a flying buddy when he moved from VA to Alaska but it needs new wing servos. He had cartwheeled it and stripped the gears in on aileron servo. I pulled them and put just some regular 9 grams in it as I had some on hand but they...

    Hung half of some old kitchen cabinets in my shop. They aren’t the prettiest but they are solid and where free.

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

    Aint that the truth. That file box in front of the black shelf is one of three (others are in a diff room currently) that are full of just random screws, nuts, bolts, washers, nails, staples, and so on. Once the rest of the shop is fully organized then I will get to sorting it all out so I know...
