Starting a -10

[rvbuilder]

Hello all,

We wanted to introduce ourselves to the -10 group. My name is James and my wife is Zeni (Zen-eee). I was involved in the RV community of -10 builders about 9 years ago. Due to some life changes I had to forgo the build and sold my finished emp and wings.

Fast forward 2013 -->> We have finished our workshop and are preparing to begin the new -10 kit when it arrives. Sent my tool order to Cleaveland Tools Tuesday and on the home stretch receiving everything to get started.

My wife and I are looking forward to the project, making some great new friends and being a part of the RV community.

Looking forward to sharing with you all and excited to be attending Sun & Fun this year as builders!

Hey James and Zeni, welcome from a fellow -10 newbie! (although it seems like you have plenty of experience with the -10). I'll be following your build closely!

Hi Zeni, Hi James,

Enjoy the build! The plans are fantastic and the kit is really well put together. I think you two will enjoy the journey. I'm 3 years into the build and itching to enjoy the fruits of my labor. Have fun and let us know if any speed bumps arise.

Welcome. I am pretty new myself. The folks on here r awsome and this is a great site. I just got done last week with the composite class from aircrafters that dave and tim put on in california and i got to tell you it was great. When you get close to the fiberglass part you need to take the two day course it will answer a lot of questions and make it to where you will save time and money. Good luck and hope to meet u guys sometime.

Glad to see you here. If you are ever up this way, stop in. We had a great time building the -4 and the -10.

Hey all thanks for the welcomes. I am looking forward to get going on it. I remember building my 10 fuel tanks years ago and that was probably the most not so fun part but I really enjoyed building.

Back then we used the Yahoo group and matronics list. It was nothing like this where you could read so much thats been posted to help when getting in a pinch with something...

I am thinking this forum Doug put together was hatched from the yahoo group but I could be wrong. I was reading some old posts of mine from the matronics list. It was back when Rick Sked, Tim O and Scott S were building when I started my -10. We were all building at the same time. It pains me to to have had to forgo that build but the dream is very much alive and starting within the next week or two when the rest of my parts get here. Tools etc.... (Side note, I am having Sciatica surgery on the 13th so maybe a little delay to recover)

Cant wait to meet you all. Looking forward to Sun and Fun in few weeks!!

Thanks again!!!
