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

Damn I'm hungry
Started sheeting over the cabin tonight. Think I will remove and cut new cabin windows too. Installed magnets to keep the door shut last night.

I haven't done much in the shop/building, been sleeping a lot....I think it's the Chantix I'm taking. So much for insomnia for a side effect lol, makes me sleep like a baby!!

Tried that too. All it did was kept me in a bad mood wanting a cigarette. So I tried an alternative. It made me sleepy and not want to get anything done as well.

Giving my H9 hellcat a face before I hang it up in my buddies LHS. 3D printed a dummy spinner, painting it flat black.

Well the 3D printer is being used . The spinner looks good . How strong is the plastic that is used to make these parts are there any material specifications.

Got a little work done again on the 50cc profile made the four ribs for the fuselage and the wing. Two are for bolting the wing to the fuselage and the second two will be against the fuselage for sheeting. There will be a small transition piece between the wing and the fuselage for two reasons. One is to get the wing area up to 1400 square inches and second to accommodate the angle between the wing and the fuselage. Hope that makes sense.

I'm not a regular on GSN lately but do look in every once in a while. Title of the thread intrigued me so I thought I'd add to it.

I'm working on a scratch built 1/3 scale Austro Hungarian Albatros D-III. It's in the finishing stages. I'm scratch building off of pictures a 200 hp Austro Daimler engine for it. A kit is not available to my knowledge.

Last night I built the Exhaust stacks for the Engine.

Wow nice work you do not see one of those planes to often. Nice work on the exhaust looks very scale. Not much to go looks like it will be ready for this season to fly keep us informed.
