				I know I am a little  late with my response, but here is how I feel.
   
   Yes! There is not  much activity on this site. Who's fault is it?  Rather than complaining  maybe we all should make it a point to take a few minutes each week to send an  e-mail to get some discussions started.  My observation is that if someone  asks a question, or makes a controversial statement it draws out a lot of  replies and useful information.  So lets do it!
   
  Now to get off my  soap box!
   
  I have been  building, off and on, for many years, between honey do lists, an F.8L.  It  has been a very rewarding project, in terms of learning so much about structure  systems and fabrication techniques.
   
  I have a lot of  pieces that are quite far along.  Tail section with control surfaces is  assembled.  Wing structure is still in the jig, but nearly complete, with  gear, control surfaces installed.  About ready to have an EAA Technical  Counselor come in and go over every detail before the final skinning.   Fuselage is assembled.  I did this separate from the wing, and plan to mate  them together when the wing comes out of the jig.  The most recent part has  been fabrication of the Cowling, which I am fabricating over a mold. Have not  started glassing the cowling, but hope to get it done this winter.  I will  have to fire up my wood burning stove, here in Massachusetts it gets rather  cool for several months.
   
  Enough for  now, will try to continue more later.
