    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    That's really nice terry. I had done something similar in my pickup but ended up taking it out as it didn't work how I wanted. I think if I made it raise up in the middle like you did the. It would solve my problems. Hmmmm may have to pick up another piece of plywood.

    PAU 30% Sukhoi SU-26

    We convinced a guy at work once there was such a thing as a cable softener to make it easier to bend big copper wire when hooking it up. When he couldn't find any in the truck we told him to be sure and ask the boss to pick some up for us when he came to check on the job in the morning. Believe...

    Sport Thanks to all the builders here.

    Building is where its at in my opinion. Sent a picture of some ribs for my next plane to a buddy thins morning. I'm building from plans and told him I'm one of the odd balls out there who actually enjoys cutting all the pats out before building.

    I take it not even a Tube in the fuse could save that one. LOL That's what slabs are designed for though to abuse the hell out of them. I have dorked my sabre35 countless times in the last week with decent weather just goofing off with it.
