Sukhoi maintenance this weekend. Swapped the 1lb heavier SUPER flexible aluminum gear for a similar sized Yak c.f. gear (only option out there after graftec failed again).

Just drilled through the existing gear right into the cf gear.

Did some sheetrock installation in my soon to be dedicated toy room (extra room at my shop). Tentative lathe on right and mill on left layout.

I might finish the sheetrock with FRP wallboard later.

@Stevendavis the rotary phase converter control box is center of the dry wall. The motor is lower left with its future home outside in a doghouse type structure.

Looks nice. Once we find a new house and I have a shop again I plan to build a dedicated lipo charging station and will use either hardie backer or the FR Drywall.
