After years of not being able to part with items that I thought had value, my garage is just about aircraft worthy. Thank you Vans. I am on a first name basis with the Salvation Army attendant and the dumpster at work has been a tax free employee benefit.

Hope to have the factory running in 2 weeks. Can't wait.
 
Who says manufacturing is dead in America?

Awesome!

One hint ... plan to screw/nail and glue your EAA 1000 benches. I just screwed mine together, and found that they "wiggle" a bit when I lean hard on them. If I was to do-over, I'd glue then as well.

Have fun! It's a great journey.
