I started building the fuselage today! There hasn't been room for any building in a while, but now I have set up a building table in the shed, and I can finally do some building. As you can see in the photo, the fuselage sides are warped from lying in the shed for two years, but I think they will be fine when everything is glued together over the plans.

Photo #2 shows my new electric sander. I have two things to say about those: 1) Why didn't I buy one years ago - it would have saved hours of sanding. 2) I must be getting old (at 36).
