Cannot start on my Phase 6 due to my workbench becoming a potting shed/greenhouse till end of Spring. :( Never mind I have another new project I can do in the meantime.


What?

Is your meantime similar to a wooden shed or its it brick built?

Not wishing to hijack Mike's thread all I can say is a project that is allowed indoors with minimal glueing. Also, I have been given a TO DO list. :(

I had an opportunity to take a close look at Mike's work today and it's looking really good, the photo's don't do it justice, and it's lovely to see it taking shape and have such graceful lines. The AMT is far more rigid that I thought it would be, admittedly, my only other experience of seeing one is on Mike's Algebra, and I'm amazed that one stays on in flight!

The build is as shown on the plan with the exception of the foam wing. AMT's were fashionable at the time.

Lots of fiddly jobs doe over the last couple of days. The wing bolts and dowels are done. I opted to use the rivnuts in the end because their extra height meant I couple still use short bolts and have the mounting plate lower in the fuselage where it had something substantial to bond to...the spruce longeron.
