Are you still in Irricana? I am hoping to get started building in the next few days,,Fuselage welding.
Thanks George.
I was able to get these locally. I think it will make an excellent bench.
I'm thinking of building a CH 750 here in Airdrie and see that you are close by. I was wondering If you wouldn't mind if I paid you a visit to see yours before I decided to take the plunge and order the kit.
Thank you!
Mike
I know where Cold lake is my brother lives in Ft Mcmurray. I lived in south Calgary for 20 years. I sometimes go across the street here in Downsview ontario to get into the Simulator at Flight Safety. Good luck with your 701
All the best.
With 6 of us working together, we have lots of contacts and connections. The water jet is just one of them. I think the water jet is about $300/hour and you can do a lot in an hour. Should be pretty easy to find one in Calgary. You will have to get the desired parts digitized into autocad, as well.
I don't know much about some of this technical stuff, but I don't think that plasma cutting works very well on aluminum. I could be wrong. A simple call to a metal fabrication shop should tell the tale.
Good luck with your projects!
Cheers,
Joe
