I got stuck on one when I couldn't turn up a bolt in the size I wanted. It really upset me that the designer of the kit would say buy such and such part number and it'll work, then it's not even close. So, I hung it up for 3 years and as I was learning how to weld so I could build a full scale plane I thought, ya know, I can weld 2 bolts together and make the size I need. I did and it didn't take me a week to have it in the air.

It's funny how you can get stuck, then while working on something else you learn a new trick that suddenly is exactly what you needed to finish that stuck one, then they just go together. Of course I have another Cap to finish up and a P38, but what's the rush, I'm flying the one I finished and all is well.
