I didn't get a lot done this weekend but made a little progress. Friday night it snowed and Saturday was pretty cold. Leah and I went to a Monster Truck rally and then took a nap. As a result we didn't make any progress on anything.
Today though it was warmer so I got out to the garage in the afternoon. I had bought some 1" square aluminum tube and 1" strap for the oxygen bottle mounts. So I spent a little time measuring, cutting, sanding, drilling, fitting, trimming, and bolting. I also had to trim the seat bottom so that I can remove the clamps. In the end everything is bolted down and fits. I took special careto make sure that everything clears the stick and control cables. It's all good. I also dug up the old brackets used to locate the battery along with the velcro to hold it down so I re-installed the battery too. It's looking good!
Supposed to warm up over the next few days so maybe we'll be glueing fabric on the fuselage soon.
