It has been a year since my last post but I am happy to report that I have restarted my build today. In the past year, a lot has happened in terms of life, however, the spirit hasn't been lost.

I am also tracking my progress using the EAA's new online build log.

The shed project I've mentioned previously blew up into a three month project but it was well worth the effort as it freed up a lot of space in the garage.

I made the first fork for the wing rotisseries and tested for fit today. I used a 1-½” PVC tube cut into pieces, a T joint, two elbow joints and three end caps. The spacing between the two pipes that go into the wing spars is exactly 27.5” on center. The outer diameters of the elbow joint sockets are perfect fit with the inside diameters of the spars with a little bit of play.

Tomorrow, I hope to finish building the rotisseries.
