    Picked up a new project today. Just call me Oscar the Grouch without the Grouch part as I love other peoples trash. A buddy had an unfortunate run in between a EF 69" turbo Raven and the ground. It was destined for the trash if I hadn't said I would take it. Broken wheel pant. The left wing...

    Got the NAV Lights in the first wing last night. Very happy with how it turned out. Will wait to actually glue them in until I verify everything works.

    I think designing custom parts for a specific application may have become one of my favorite parts of this hobby. Here is a mount for a Spektrum AR10100T RX for the 100" TBM I'm putting together for a friend.

    Airplane Design Fusion 360

    Lets design a fuse. 1. We will use a new tool which is the shell command. Once selected you will first select any face on the solid body you want to go away and you have to pick at least one face so it knows which solid to shell. For the fuse I want the wing saddle area and the firewall to go...
