Mike workin on the plane

Here we observe the Pawnshopmike in his natural habitat as he uses wood sticks and glue to form a primitive flying machine.

Science still does not know just how the Pawnshopmike has learned these skills, so we quietly watch.

Hey Mike,

That table might not be big enough when it comes time to build that HUGE wing. . . . .

No doubt bro.

Horizontal stab framed and glued up.

Beautifully said. Like Marty Stouffer's Wild America.

Love the build thread. Brings back memories. I always liked this plane!

I was given a 99" Robin hood with a US engines 38cc magneto with Acerc servos. It was creme with maroon stripes on the wing tips and down the fuselage I ended up downsizing it before I could fly it.

Was that "Wild America" or "The Twilight Zone"?. . . . . . . . ROFLAMO ! ! ! ! !

Got the elevators framed up. I used epoxy on the dowel joiner. Titebond III on everything else. Also used some thin CA to tack in place while the Titebond dries.

I'll probably be more like The Shining by the time I'm done with this baby.

Landing gear bent, welded and painted. Many thanks to my buddy Kevin Cooper for the awesome welding job and @Decal Dennis for the paint work.

Got the wing plans laid out and covered with wax paper. But now I'm scared to get started. That is one big ass wing! Pic doesn't do it justice.

I serve a couple items that came from my shop.
