But again, as the FAA says , "We're here to HELP you!"
    Jim - I need him to evaluate my work and keep me alive. I'm happy with the welds, but there are things he knows to look for that I would have missed. For example, the prototype was clamped in place when I noticed I wasn't getting a full range of motion; it was a fluke that I thought to check that. I need his eyes. - MikeH.

      Sounds like you may have a good one. Keep him close and he will keep you alive. Sometimes my IA rolls his eyes at what I want to do (why would ANYONE want to take their plane back to original and REMOVE all of the "improvements"). He actually does gets it. The hard part is figuring out what "original" was. Taking out the piece of plywood that was the instrument panel was easy. Figuring out what an original 41 panel looked like was a bit harder.

          Not many people stand close behind me, but it isn't because I back up.
