Mike, You're absolutely right about the time it takes to fabricate a part. Iwent through enough steel for three Air Campers. This Piet project was supposedto take 3 years....Boy was I wrong! I'm in my 5th year now and still probablyhave 2 years left on it. At least I hope I can complete it in 2 years and flyit to Brodhead. My patient and very understanding wife still keeps asking mewhen will it be finished and my stock answer still is "3 more years, Honey".
