HERMAN


The knock on the door instilled a cold sweat of fear . It was like being chained to a train track and you can hear the whistle of the approaching cho-cho. The man was all dressed in black. His name is Herman . He inspected my work like the cold, heartless bastard he is.. It sent chills up my back.,,,

one down-one to go


Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the basement, gremlins slipped another wing on the frame! At least they hung the finished one neatly....

Filler Coat





Finally put the first 2 coats of filler on the left wing. The grey Ekofill from the Steward system. Geez-I shud get royalties for the hawking I do for them

Finishing Tapes





It doesn't mean your finished! These tapes go over the Rib stitching and reinforce the hard corners.

CAN YOU DESCRIBE SEX TO A MARTIAN ?

Trying to describe how to rib-stitch is like describing sex to a martian. Blank stare with a underlying curiosity. But show him a video and he'll get the idea. Same with the infamous rib-stitch. In other words if you want to see how it's done-go somewhere else. Here is the finished results on the first bay of the left wing.

MONTANA DAVE

These here pics are for my bud "Montana Dave" who has the prettiest bride this side of the divide. Not much between the ears , montana, but the man knows tools and how to use them.In his spare time he captains a boeing 777 wearing shitkicker ranch boots.


Fabricing the wing , ma man. Two fisted irons finished the tensioning of the fabric.
