Well the interior is DONE!  All of the pictures now are of completed work.  I'm sure we will make changes and add things but the work is done.  If I would have done the step rails last November, I would not be walking with a limp now.  It's great to have all of the scaffold boards out of the way.  I am adding another underground water tank and moving the washroom upstairs and I may make one of the downstairs rooms into a handloading and airplane building shop...but the building is done.   Sarah is making noises about another built-in closet and chest of drawers in the bedroom...but I am resisting that...I will probably lose. More pictures to come when we get the outside cleaned up of all the building clutter.  8)

There is much that I need to do, more that I want to do, and less that I can do.

Never allow your "need" to make money to exceed your "desire" to provide quality service.

Nice work. Is that a Goldberg Eagle 63 in the rafters? Or maybe the Eaglet 50?

I built that several years ago and it is just a generic trainer of some kind.  All of my "good" planes were distroyed in hurricane Ike the summer of 2009.  I'm planning to spend a lot of time this winter rebuilding my "fleet".  I haven't tried battery powered planes but I'm going to.  It'll be nice to get away from glow plug fuel.

Well it looks really close to my Eagle 63. My dream plane is a quarter scale F4U Corsair. It is tough trying to find a 36 inch 3 or 4 blade prop that you can fly. I also have my eye on a very large B25 Mitchell.

I want to try an electric as well, but I'm thinking a Zeppelin or something similar.

You did good Quinton.
