Building some Brackets
I started working on the flap brackets today. I made four good brackets and sent two to the scrap pile
Everything was going fine until I drilled 3/8 instead of 3/16
These all came out fine though

A New Hanger
After several months of waiting I finally have a hanger at KOXR. I am on the waiting list for the airport of my choice, KCMA, but 169 people are ahead of me. KOXR should do for the next 5 years or so.
While I was on the way to my hanger I stopped by the Harbor Freight factory for the parking lot sale. I picked up a little hanger warming gift. A 2HP compressor for $35.
