				Good Evening All,
   
  Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Shane Norwood, and I will be starting my aircraft building adventure in November by attending a 601XL rudder workshop in Cloverdale, CA. I'm looking forward to joining all of you as a fellow Zenith builder. I'm encouraged by the great communication on this list. It seems like everyone within the building community does what they can to help each other complete their goal. I'll keep everyone posted on my progress.

				Welcome to the club Shane, may God have mercy on your soul.
 
 You are getting off to a very good start by doing the Rudder Workshop. Keep it up and you'll be fine.

				I would also like to welcome you Shane. There are some very experienced builders on the website, and they are all very passionate about this endeavor and willing to help. I'm a relative "newbie" as I attended the rudder workshop in March of this year, and am building a 701. I've got the tail done and I'm up to my eyeballs with the right wing. I love it, and only wish I'd started sooner. The rudder workshop is a very good thing to attend and it will help your confidence a lot. Good luck.

				Welcome Shane,
 If I knew it was going to be this much fun I would have started sooner.

				Welcome.  Good group here.
 
 My wife & I attended a rudder workshop last November.  
 
 In the year that's followed we've competed the tail, wings, and are assembling a Corvair engine (awaiting some parts to finish it).
 
 Fuselage kit is ordered - should keep me busy this winter.
 
 The hardest part is drilling the first hole.  You will remember it.  Take a picture.

				Thanks Patrick for your encouragement. I will also be using the Corvair engine in my plane. I just placed an order last night for William Wynne's conversion manual. I hope you don't mind if I pick your brain sometime in the future about your engine building experiences thus far with the Corvair conversion.  
   
  Oh and believe me, I'll be buying a nicer digital camera than I already have to take those first drill hole pictures from every angle!
   
  Have fun with that fuselage kit! Hopefully by this time next year I'll be as far along on my project as you are at this point!
   
  Thanks Again,
  Shane
