Done with the wing tips. Next, assemble upper left wing. See more at my silly, out-of-order album at http://www.sonerai.net/hatz.

Same engine. Perhaps the lighting or the differences in the three cameras used to take the pictures caused this.

Looking at your pictures it appears that two engines were in the plane.

Not sure what you mean - ? It never changed color.

Hi Guys,
I ran into the same situation but was fortunate to have a neighbor that didn't drive (she just turned 98) and had an empty garage. I used it for the "holding area". My 2 car garage has never had a car in it! I am fortunate to have a large space at my workplace, about 8 miles from home, available to do the paint and assembly. I hope that situation doesn't change.
Scott, why did your engine change color?

Thanks Dave. The garage is starting to close in on me as the project gets further along. I ran into a conundrum today with where to store the finished wing. I was planning to keep it in the dinning room but for reasons I do not understand, my wife said no. It's now hanging with proper support against the garage wall.

Three wing tip bows begin this week.

Great pics Scott, thanks for sharing. Its great to see someone else building in thier garage. Your quite a ways along and its very encouraging...I am jealous. I thought I had out grown my garage, but I can see that if you've gotten this far along, then I can keep struggling along. thanks again, and congratulations on such a great job.

Makes perfect since now Scott, thank you very much. Your pictures are very helpful and I will definitely use them as a reference and really appreciate your help. I was able to reach the supplier in time this morning and they will now be sending the blanks with no tapers. Jeff, from Evergreen Aviation Services has been a great help with the spars and will be shipping them out to me next week.
