As Christmas Eve is here, I wish each and every one of you a Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and hope you find all the tools you asked for under the tree tomorrow.

It's a time of year I spend lots of quality time with the family, but also hope to sneak in a few hours in the workshop finishing up the wing ribs so we can move the project into the garage just in time for the winter chill. :)

May you have successful building, light breezes when you fly, and all the happiness the season can offer.

And a orbital buffer with 3 grades of NuVite, two strap duplicators, and a pressure regulator. My in-laws are very supportive of my hobbies! Spent a couple hours this evening trying the NuVite on the rudder. Wow....

Couple photos - did one side with the three grades of NuVite and an orbital buffer I think they got at Harbor Freight. I shot these late this evening and they aren't the best photos or the best polish work, but you get the idea.

I promised myself years ago I'd own a polished airplane when I built one - hard work, and all. I love the way they look!
