I realize you haven't had the chance to work much on your kit, but any chance you can post a few photos? Mine is arriving August 1st, and I would really like to have some pictorial guidance on building one of these in case something confuses me. Thanks.

P.S. Here is a photo of my garage (and killer attack dog) waiting on delivery. It seems so empty!

I noticed a few things:
The dog will soon find good hiding spots to sleep behind boxes of parts.
The rocking chair will be home when you get fustrated enough to have to 'hit pause' and sit down to finger through the books.
You soon won't see the floor without a dremel tool laying in the middle of it for eternity.
That shop vac will always follow the dremel around.
The door to the house may eventually get a padlock put on the outside.
Your aft end will take up the shape of that roller stool's seat.
You will find that floor to be familiar as you lay down with a flashlight to look for that one little part that seems to vanish when you drop it.
The place will have the most wonderful aroma in the world....Hysol.
Look forward to it all!

You've got way too much time on your hands to notice all that. But yea, I can't wait!

I'm heading off to OSH today (pre-OSH FFI clinic in Rock Falls, IL), then working in Chicago the week after. Due to lots of flying activities (formation flying gigs almost every weekend during August) I really won't get into the groove until after Labor Day. I'm attending the Sport Air two day Fabric Covering workshop in Denver Sept. 6 & 7, then plan to fully get into things.
