My wife got tired of me whining while waiting for the wing kit (arriving in March), and ordered me the tool box. I finished building it and I'm now polishing it to a mirror finish, as I will most of the airplane......Larry

polished, huh?? that was my original plan. now i'm not so sure. it does look great though! i thought about building the tool box, but now i'm only a couple weeks away and by the time it would get here, i'd probably only get a start on it. maybe between the wings and fuse.

I love polished airplanes, I have a polished Skymaster. In stead of building the practice kit I bought 16ga galvanized sheetmetal and riveted together a grinder stand. Dimpled, flush riveted, and all, seemed more practical than their little airfoil............
