After about 4 coats of Cut #Ruby, the #red is finally showing even saturation on all 4 #walls! . Tomorrow brings taping #lines for the top half in preparation for the lighter #shade I’m using on top. This is going to look #amazing! . And, yes… I’ll cover the red with plastic to the floor to protect from drips.. . . . . #building #build #buildaworkshop #buildinganairplane #rv10 #rv10build #rv10buildprep #vansaircraft #vansairforce #construction #constructionlife #paint #painter #interior #interiordecor #avgeek #studentpilot #eaa #aopa (at Abilene, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpG71DNOP7D/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#Digging was a lot faster and way easier the first time this #electrical #conduit went in. But, that was the time I rented a mini-excavator, too. . I figured this time around would be maybe a little faster than I expected doing this by hand to install larger diameter conduit. But, noooo! . Even with the softer soil this is still back breaking work! I’ll be so happy when I get this done and finally have lights inside the #AirplaneFactory v1.0! . Potentially pouring the self-leveling floor tomorrow! 🤩 . . . . #vansairforce #vansaircraft #vansaircraftrv10 #avgeek #construction #constructionlife #buildingaworkshop #buildingashed #buildinganairplane #rv10 #rv10buildprep #rv10build (at Abilene, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cok-2QYvJ26/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I just now had a chance to open the box with my #rv10 #strobe #light from @aveoengineering and my inner adolescent kicked into Beavis & Butthead mode when I saw the foam cutout. . . . . #rv10build #buildinganairplane #airplanesarecool #airplanesarelife #pilot #phalic #airplaneparts #experimentalaviation #eaa #aopa #vansaircraft #vansairforce #aviation #avgeek #avporn #aircraftequipment #aveo (at Elgin, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjbq6nwLgb1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My first #airplane love will always be @vansaircraftinc but, this week, I had to mess around a little bit with a @sonexaircraft. #airplanesarecool #osh22 #AirVenture #buildinganairplane #riveting #pullrivets #poprivets #signmyname #waiex #oneweekwonder (at Wittman Regional Airport) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgiH9D9pucw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#NewVideoAlert!
This coming Tuesday, Feb 22, 2022 at 2pm CST, we check out #ControlApproach and meet our new friend, Paul Grimstad. Come see why we chose his #RudderPedals over going with the stock @vansaircraftinc pedals.
While we were at it, we also got to check out the #RV14A he’s building! How #cool is that?!? So, grab your popcorn  but make it a small bag since this will be one of my shorter #videos. The channel link is in my #bio.
