Title: New DE Build Starting in TX
Post by: sspruell on September 15, 2019, 02:54:33 PM

Greetings!

I wanted to introduce myself to the group.  I purchased DE plan set -48 from Leonard at Osh '18, but I'm just now getting around to starting the build. I went out and visited with him last week (VERY enjoyable) for a little inspiration.  I'm building in Conroe, TX, and planning on installing a Verner (already PM'd PropMan).  I just received the rib wood kit from JohnB yesterday and plan to start sanding stock and building the jig this week.

Looking forward to getting to know y'all online!
Steve

Welcome to the Forum! I never met Leonard, but I hear he is a delight to know. You are lucky to be close enough to visit. I'm in the Atlanta, GA area and hope there will be a couple of XL's flying here next year.

writing to see if you are still following the post. I have plans -70. I have some questions if you have started on the wings.
