G'day all. For personal reasons, time, health and life priorities, I am going to start phasing out regular posting to forums and reduce to social media. Once the Viper is finished, I will cut back even more. For those who are interested in following progress on my work, you can find it on the...

I've noticed the same in Canberra and surrounds, since the fires. I work in the bush, spend a lot of my time near water sources, valleys, grasslands, wooded land and mountains. Nada. None. I actively look for them too as they have always been a fav of mine. I got to know many of their haunts and...

Fibreglassing update.

G'day gang. My apologies, I've been pretty busy so I haven't had a chance to make more crack scratchers. I'm currently out of stock, but hopefully I'll get a chance to forge some more this weekend. Cheers, Baz.

While I'm waiting to sell another blade so I can afford the resin to finish the hull - Did a bit of bog work to tidy the ends of the nav light housing. Ran power to nav lights on the port wing and the strobe on the tail. Re-organised the workshop so I can fit both wings on at once. Yes...

I finished glassing all the underside now, right to the rear. I've now put a new trim and some bulb seal around the cockpit edges and now the canopy slides back and seals on the rubber. Sounds heaps better too. Kinda like closing the door of a Rolls Royce. Glassing high tonight. Tell me it...

Not much mate. As an insomniac, I try to use my quiet time at night, well.

Late night fibreglassing continues...
