CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.

Dam guys a long week end and back to work at a new job. It felt like the first day a school and not a cute girl to be seen. Well <profanity> snacks I did not really talk to any one and just did the on boarding normal bs and did some on line classes oh the joy of being part of the working class in the US.🤪

Well I didn't mean that resources but rather the stock you can pull from your shelves 😉

In good old Europe there is not really a market for such military aircraft parts. And if it was they are really expensive.

That means everything has to be designed and produced by ourselves. Furtunatly there is this great help here in the forum 👍

I totally under stand the lack of resource for the Eu builders. That is the mane reason I originally worked with Hansolo in Europe and Wayne in the US .

The plan was to start with the cockpit and work in to the side consoles and main instrument panels wile keeping the accurate dimensions of the A-10 Full Military Trainer . Yet converting the material from aluminum ( expensive)to wood and yet stay away from MDF do to the lack of structural integrity. I had hope to build a strong informed builder community around the information and plans. I even did several walk arounds over skype and several form member visited my house in central Montana. The only request I had was don't use any of the information I was providing for free to make a commercial product. Unfortunately do to real life I had to step back from the community.  It is great to see how many people have continued to share information and complete their dream cockpit.
