Default RV-12 construction photos on Picasa

Here is the link to the photos on Picasa. Hopefully these will turn out better than the ones on Imageshack.

I will update the pictures as I go so you can follow along. I will be happy to answer questions as I have time.

Thumbs up THANKS JIM!!

Thanks for loading these up. Great pictures and comments.

For other users not used to Picasa... you can use the "zoom" tool after opening a picture... but I prefer to go to "slideshow" and then pausing it and looking at the picture(s) I want. Also... to get an even bigger picture... add a "fullscreen" button to your browser toolbar... then go full screen when viewing the pictures. Then you have a full-sized picture filling your monitor screen.

Awesome!! DJ

Default Great Pictures!

Pictures are large and crystal clear! Thanks so much.

When I see all those tools you have in the background, your large work tables and the great results you've gotten so far, I become a bit intimidated.

If you would like to take a 600-900 hour vacation in sunny Florida ... just come on down!

Thumbs up HOORAY!!!

I can see them!

Thanks for doing this Jim. I know that doing the "web thing" can get in the way of the build. I am sure that we ALL appreciate the extra effort.

Regards,

Anthony

Hi Jim... Thanks for posting the pictures. Do keep posting your entire build. It really helps me to visualize what is coming up and makes the waiting for my wing kit a lot easier

Cool Rivet Puller

Thanks for the photos - we are very interested. I would like to know which brand and number of 'rivet puller' you are recommending. My guess is that an air operated 'rivet puller' will produce a more uniform and 'better' final product. Thanks for your recommendation.
