2022 December - Holiday working on the firewall

If you’d like to read my blog post at firstrivet.net I have pictures of the build as I go there along with other written documentation.

We started this build in July of 2021 with the hopes of completing it in about 2 years time. This is my/our first time building an airplane and we’re pretty excited to be doing so.

The standard place for the gascolator give problems with the engine frame. Please test fit the original position with the engine support. I had to move the gascolator to the right and drill a new hole for it. Good luck 👍

Good to know. I'm going to be putting the engine mount on this weekend so I'll know PDQ here.

Couldn’t quite tell - you painting the inside of the canopy at a later step?

[@FirstRivet]

Oh - I thought I went over that. I had a hot rod shop close by paint it before I installed it. They did a fantastic job of cleaning it up and painting. It was pricey, but it was way better of a job than I could have ever done.
