KingFox Model 7 STi - beginning the build

[Hardwood]

To the followers only viewing here in the KitFox forum, you will be seeing what appears to be two of the same posts. I started a new format called “Reality & YouTube” respectively. Some like to watch everything to include some of my dry humor in the shop while some of the ADD’ers like the short versions, ie. YouTube so that is why you will see 2 versions. Feel free to watch both. Thanks for your interest, Matt

In this video I’ll be installing the stringer on the Belly or the bottom of the fuselage. Continuing down the path of creating two videos, one shorter version (YouTube Version) for those looking to see mostly just the steps required in a daily build video. The longer will be the (Reality Version) so you can really see how long it takes to do some of the simple steps. I hope you like the new formats. Let me know what you think in the comments section.


Thanks for coming back or clicking for your first time & watching.


Cheers & Happy Building.

Only version of this video to date.

Hello to my 414 subscribers & those new to the channel. Welcome back. Please Subscribe, Like, leave a comment if you have some good inputs, advice or just want to say hello & most importantly share this video with your friends, builders or others you may think are interested.


In this video I’ll be tying up some loose ends underneath the center console. Deemed the Pukka panel by one of my subscribers because of the many holes that I had to drill into it. This name comes from the rudder pedals that I purchased also called Pukka Pedals due in part to the many holes in them which give your tootsies some traction on the pedals.


This is a one & only version of the video since it is short in nature in & of itself. Something that I should have wrapped up a while back but was looked over. Anyway, I didn’t want to leave out any details, so here goes.


Thanks for coming back or clicking for your first time & watching.


Cheers & Happy Building.
