Bill:
You are so right - waiting around to see a job completed is the worst part !!
Although, installing a garage door (IMHO) is not easy and I'd sub it out to a pro anyday.
By the way - what's a 'garanger' ? A garage/ ???
Thanks !!

Degrees or conibears?
Having 3 degrees just proves that by the time you graduate with one, the bar has been raised and you have to get another. Having 3 conibears on your workbench means you still have all your tools, and there are a batch of moochers walking around in casts.
Sheesh! When I hit the wall (Or more accurately, the size of the basement door) I couldn't wait to get started on the garanger. Now that I've hit the wall on the garanger (Waiting and waiting and waiting for a garage door) I can't wait to get back to work on the plane.
With the entire list as my witness, I swear I will never contract out anything I know I can do myself. If I would have just had the pad poured and let it go at that, I'd be done by now.

Tracy-
GARagehANGER. I plan on trailering the plane to a local airport and putting it up in the communal hangar during flying season, then bringing it home at the end of the season for annual, etc. We really only have 6 months of flying around here, except for the uncomfortable kind. If I wanted to taxi down the road and fly off my neighbor's field, I could do it in a 701, but not a 601. I TOLD you people I live out in the middle of nowhere! Plan on building Larry Mac's wing installation jig.
I designed and built my own home with no other help than my father in law, and he was 70 at the time. Best alarm clock you could ask for- couldn't have done it without him.
Contracted out the foundation (I can't lay a block to save my life), and built everything else. Got the building permit on May 17, and moved in November 19th the same year. Missed 4 days of work, as I remember.
The last gargage door I installed (About 3 years ago), it took me a weekend, including the opener.
Uh, think about it. If you're crazy enough to take on building your own plane, a garage door is a piece of cake.

Even the tips on the Cessna's don't fit to perfection. The Superfil is probably an excellent idea as the composite tips and the metal stab will have differing flexibilities and the Superfil will probably protect from later cracking of the tips.
