Pietenpol-List: Building place..es
Original Posted By: Rick Schreiber
Why not make (and give to the futuer bilders) something to say about the buildingplaces we used to develope the project?.. I think the building place is somethingvery important to take in account before begin, and see some examples bigsand smalls can give more determination to begin.. or not. I saw very clean and big places, and others very smalls; it come to my mind theone piece wing of Chuck Gantzer crossing two or three rooms, i don see it veryclear in the photos.An extrem example is this one http://goo.gl/9qNbT I am going to post some photos of mine, I start in a room over my parents housegarage, this place was unused, so I went there. There I build the fuselage andthe empanagge, when the fuselagge was quasi ready, we download it to the garagebelow the room and I begin the first wing.. when the second wing was assambledI lost this room for xx reason, so, I download one wing to the garage andhang it over the fuse, and get the other wing to my home, and hang it to theroof to make place for the car. and this is my actual situation, the fuse andone wing in my parents garage and the other wing at home.It's not very comfortable work at home, the space is very reduced, and permanentlyare bikes, surfboards, grass cutter, etc going out and in.. but it's whatI have, and when I am angry about that, I saw the Taylor titch video.. anyway, just to kill time with a cofee in hand.Reegards--------Mario GiacummoPhotos here: http://goo.gl/wh7M4Little Blog : http://vgmk1.blogspot.comRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/6_11 ... ______Date: Wed, 06 Mar 2013 12:22:27 -0600

Interesting idea, Mario.I'm building in an unheated (except for a small plug-in space heater) 1 1/2 cargarage, but about 1/3 of the garage is filled with shelving, so it's effectivelyonly slightly larger than a single car garage. My initial building tablewas the dining room table, which I set my rib jig on when I assembled my ribs.It would be nice to have a bit more space, but, as you say, compared to thatTaylor Titch workspace, it's quite spacious. Attached are a few pictures thatshow how cramped (and messy) my workspace is. I've got a tablesaw, and a mobilework-cart on wheels that holds my drill press, scroll saw and belt/disc sander.Bill C.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/2010 ... __________

When I started to build my tailfeathers in Decof 99, my two car garage was already full of toolsand work benches including a 60 drawer libraryindex card beast with an added 2" thick top sportingtwo handmade, lefthand cabinetry vises. I added afour ft by fourteen foot low table down the oppositeside to build on. On page two of my site you'll see my18 ft skin-on-frame kayak looming low over the fuselage. It took some time to come to terms with finding a suitable place for that thing. Where? Corner to corner under theceiling of my 12 ft living room.
. With all theother stuff in there it quickly became apparentthat there would beno way to add landing gear, cabanes, center section or even cowl and turtle deck! Hmmm.... Oh...... yeah...sure....So out in the garden it goes!Now that I'm seriously preparing to build wings Isee that it's going to be logisticly interesting to workup this 5 by 13 ft thing in there! :-)Unfortunately I have somehow lost the ability toupload my wysiwig programs pages so there's alot of stuff, like brakes, that's not on site.

Mario great idea. My shop is a lower level family room and garage whenneeded. My wife said if I was going to build a plane it had to be at home.The 16 by 4 foot table has been a blessing. It will be removed when the Pietis on the gear. I have all the tools needed, sanders, drill presses, bandsaws, mill sand blaster, routers, in the lower level. My table saw, latheand welders are in the garage. It's roomy but packed with airplane parts,tools, vacuums and tool boxes. I usually move something to have room tofart. Not many pictures of just the shop but attached are a couple. I havemy name in for a hangar at the Des Moines airport because the smaller fieldnorth of Des Moines I planned to use was closed.Jack TextorDes Moines, IA-----Original Message-----
