    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Nope not fast enough. Flew it yesterday at lunch. I like it a lot. But super fast servos with a very effective rudder equals the first ever plane I have had to put expo in for the rudder.

    Mini lathe (and mill) discussion.

    Very nice. I need a new bandsaw and hope to get one that can handle resawing some Cherry slabs I have. Oscillating spindle/ drum sander has been on my list for a long time.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?
