"Here is a close-up of the rudder hinge." "Landing gear jig. If I had it to do over again, I would have used Piper style axles." "Sandblasting the fuselage." "White polyurethane paint will show any cracks and the red dye in teh tube oil will contrast well with it." "Here is the jig we set up the wing struts in. This took more time than you would imagine. Our frustration meters were pegged out that day." "TAA-DAA!!!!" "Our engine mount jig." "Some careful welding. We just tack welded a little at a time until we could remove the engine."
