Howdy everyone!
I'm a long time lurker who has always dreamed about building an RV-7 and now I am finally in a position to begin. I was an airframe mechanic in the Marine Corps and I have an A&P but haven't used it in almost 10 years. I just bought the preview plans from the Van's tent in Oshkosh last week and I intend to get started this fall.
What are some of your suggestions for setting up shop and buying tools before ordering the tail kit? What other pieces of advice do you have for a first time builder before taking the plunge?
