What these last two posts are saying to me are:
Thanks for having Oshkosh this year, it allowed everyone to get their dander up about whatever soapbox they like. Now that Oshkosh is over for this year, let’s all get settled back down to building – something – and if your aircraft is done, build the best pinewood derby racer that you can! Channel those emotions into fabrication!
John, how’s your buildus interruptus with the static port hole? What mending did you choose?
I ordered a new Duckworks lens for the left wing today; I had to use it when I messed up the right wing lens. So far my costliest replacement has been a new bottom wing skin after trying in vain with my first attempts at installing the Gretz Pitot bracket. It was canted too much to the left for my liking, even though Mr. Gretz said it could be somewhere around 15 degrees off center and still give completely acceptable indications.
I noticed no one jumped on the thread about transition training near Nashville. $150/hr I can get solo time in a Piper Apache around here, maybe even an Aztec.

So, maybe just me and my cynical and critical eye reading all these emails, but I find it ironically troubling (there are two words together that you don't see too often), that so many builders would take such a critical eye (heavy on the criticism) about the folks with shoddy workmanship, yet the same group blasts the folks that seek out the help of professionals. How can you have your cake and eat it too?
Here is my take on this. I am a new builder and going to make new builder mistakes. I am taking my time (way more than I would like at times as I tend to be impatient), but it is for the good of the cause.
