Well thats cool I know my Grandpa can read prints and has all the needed tools possibly minus a few.....

Well, I'd like to boost your sales and I'll spread the word as much as I can. I've admired your DIY pit since you first mentioned it! I've checked out the new thread up above too!

Thanks!

Very nice Gene, I need to get back to my build one of these days. As soon as things slow down...:(

I'm hoping to get this thing nailed down before the end of the year. We'll see.

I got the rudder pedal assembly mounted on a pair of ball bearing drawer slides that are oriented horizontally instead of vertically. My local woodworker[*] store had them for $9.99 a pair. I've got to drill locking pin holes in the base plate for the rudder pedals as well as the cockpit deck and then that'll be ready to install. I still need to make & install the heel supports on the pedals though.

I don't know if I'll get to it tomorrow - I've got some "emergency" work to do on the F-15 that will likely eat up the whole day.

I used to dream of having a 'pit like yours Gene, but at the moment I'm just dreaming of having a whole day to spend building it!

Hehee. I pull my hair out sometimes only having one day a week to really work on multiple projects...
