    3D Viper build log (maybe)

    Well the weekend came and gone. I had no time to work on the plane. I am building a folding out feed table for my table saw. I cant fly either cause my truck is in the body shop for few weeks. A taxi driver hit me.

    So I got a table saw. I always wanted one. And I made an edge true jig for it. Really simple. This weeken I want to start the sheeting. What part do you think is a good part to start with.

    My god it was scary. I glued in the floor and it was scary. I used wood glue and I'll follow with hysol. It's a nice tight fit. I had to use about 12 clamps. It's now solid as a rock.
