Hello everyone, seems I have a lot to catch up on. Some of you have been quite busy!

Does it count if I was in front of a computer with no glue and no balsa???

I was working on airplane parts in CAD though. But the Beech engineer who originally designed this part needs a little coaching. I followed the dimension scheme exactly!

End result is a simple bracket. More to come soon and you’ll get the idea of what I’m attempting to do.

Put together a new fuel jug, can handle another gallon! Not as tipsy as my older can.

Been working on my boat motor (Suzuki 140) the last 2-3weeks changing some things that have been bugging me and have no desire to work on it in the winter outside!

Other than that we’re all waiting for this next glacier dam outburst expected this week here in Juneau, AK. Been very rainy and everything is saturated and a lot of the streams and lakes are at flooding stage which is concerning. If this glacial dam releases there’s going to be a lot more water than the previous years. You can check out the link here if you’re curious:

Also you can YouTube Juneau Suicide Basin and see a lot of neat videos like this house going into the river (2min from my place!)


I should be fine considering my elevation.

Hopefully it will not effect you.
