Refurbishing the garage as a shop

Due to lots of odd complications, I decided to simply refurbish the garage as a shop to finish the Onex. What's needed is insulation and new electrical stuff. There will be no water or sink, but it will have to do for now. The first thing to do is to tear down the plates to apply insulation. I will do wall for wall.


And it's good to be back to build.

Lots of things have happened in the mean time. I got a 1/2 share in a ICP Savannah. Super fun bush plane.


 And about 1/10 share in a Super Decathlon. We are about 10 guys (old men :-) flying some aerobatics.



The Super Decathlon has been for repairs all summer. I have only flown it a couple of hours yet. But the Onex is finally first up on the priority again once the garage is OK to work in. I still have plans for a larger shop, but I insulating and heating the garage will be a good thing in any case.

This is the third shop I'm building (not really building this one, but still). The next one will be the fourth. I didn't imagine this when starting building an aircraft, a long time ago :-)
