I'm about 20 minutes south of Venice. You should stop in and say hello. We may be headed up to the Orlando area that week for a few days to meet some family from California but will be back.

WOW!!
I got my kit from Chris, and Wow.....just wow.
Just had a minute to crack the box open, will fully inspect this weekend.
Ultra high quality parts, each bubble wrapped and heat sealed. excellent professional packaging in a CGRC logo box.
Cant wait to fully inspect, work is killing me right now

Nice! So your the one that brought the cold down with you. We just got back from Orlando last night and it was like in the 30's-40's. I will get in touch with you sometime today.

Hi Paul
Sorry I didn't reply. I don't check my messages real often. Its always best to email me at [email protected]. Still been working on orders. Sorry, its a process. I have been installing all formers except the nose gear so its a bit more time for me but less for you.
Also, machinist finally started on the orders of gear after about a 5 month wait. This is the front strut leg which is probably the hardest part to machine. A lot of jigs to this piece but I will guarantee that if you compare it to other A-10 kits even the more expensive ones and then look at the real A-10, you will see the difference.

Also, Kirk has started a build thread here http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/rc-j...ld-thread.html . I do not have any instruction for the A-10, so maybe we can relate to this thread and I will answer any questions regarding the build process. For the skilled builder it shouldn't be hard but there are quite a few pieces to this kit.

Spent a little time with Chris today talking and me drooling.
Truly a craftsman at heart and skill to match. He has other items in the works and I look forward to those.
Mean time I need to find a job in the area and relocate here so I to can work in my garage without excessive cold and heat issues.
Thanks Chris for letting us visit.
