Is it the cart or the horse that comes first? Either way, while we wait on some wings for Scrappy, let's build some custom carbon fiber wing slats from some molds that I made.

Mike, I was a Manufacturing Engineer, for Groen Bros. Aviation, working on the Sparrowhawk gyroplane, of which I believe there is at least one at the Spanish Fork Airport. That all being said, we used Fiber Glass, using the Vacuum Infusion Process to build many parts. One of those parts was the Tail. We built the individual parts with the customer putting the parts together. Your process here, while using carbon fiber, is very close to what we used. We definitely didn't use the tighter tolerances that you're using, but we made them where they needed to be. Nice to see your use of the Water Jet, which I also used while at Action Target cutting AR steels. I actually designed the vats that held the water to keep the metal chilled as it was getting cut. My design cut the time of cleaning the vats from days to an hour, or so. Thanks for bringing back the memories.

Hi Mike. It is a pleasure to watch you. Every week you inspire me a little more to get up and do things because of the joy of creation. There ought to be a life lesson for all of us and at the end of the day say what did you create and how much joy do you have for living today's life. This is what you are an example of and I would include your vlogs in teaching such.

Mike, I used a similar process for some aero parts on our TransAM car. I picked up a cheap Harbor Freight parts washer, plumbed in a large truck oil filter and ran my acetone in the parts washer. Made it real easy to clean the foam out of molded parts. The big oil filter would hold the residue of about 10 cu/ft of foam

I did 22 1/2 years on the AF and another 22 years 7 months Working for a civilian contractor to the AF, Navy, Army, and other NATO, and heads of state aircraft. Drain holes?? now I know. I knew a fuselage would expand like a bubble in flight but never thought about wings, flaps ailerons etc. At 73 still wanting to fly but cannot, I learned something. Like they say your never to old to learn or is it teach an old dog new tricks. I thought I knew airplanes and why things were where they were. Have a great week. God bless you and your family.

I agonized over how I was going to retain my fuel tanks in the wings. The kit mfr. simply said "glue them in from the bottom. ??? Polyethylene?

Waterjets are indeed super cool. We had one at the welding school I went to. Amazing what they can cut with and without the garnet. Apparently they use them to cut chicken and diapers and all sorts of weird things like that without the abrasive medium. Then like you said amazing thicknesses of metal with the abrasive. Another thing I think is really cool is how the abrasive is dispensed, and lined up into a stream of single particles in line in the water stream. Ours was 60,000 psi also and it was a fairly smallish one, I guess they make them with pumps that can do even higher pressures, like nearly double that. Incredible!!!!

Hey Mike, astounding as always! Having been born and raised in South Eastern Nevada, and lived in the SLC area, it's always a pleasure to "go home" and watch one of your videos! I've been watching since the beginning of Draco and am nothing short of astounded by your desire to aquire knowledge and the no nonsense, direct approach with which you apply what you've learned. I'm entrenched in my third battle with Lymphoma and watching you work through problems and just plain work hard on a goal to completion has been a true inspiration for me. My goal is to work for time. Time with my children, Wife and friends and time to learn as much as I can before I'm done. It's become a full-time job. Seeing the way you absorb and apply knowledge, again, is a true inspiration when it comes to achieving my goals. I hope time allows me to see Scrappy fly and to see Draco reborn but, if not, I'll be at your wingtip in spirit. Keep approaching everything you do with your same passion. Life is just a flicker and we must accomplish so much in that short time we have the light! Many adventures still await us in the future, so let's, all of us, "GET BACK TO WORK!"

Ep.8 got me, as many times as you mentioned 'body work'. My dad was an auto body repairman and, eventually a pilot, which amazed more than a few people, as it took him 6 years! Much of that had to do with geography and his snowbird tendencies (bouncing between Fairbanks, Alaska and Spokane, Washington or St. Johns, Arizona), availability & readiness of a plane, and there was always the weather, but he was determined rather than deterred. He decided he would be better off learning to fly his own plane than renting one, and came into possession of a storied Luscombe 8a (it was the Mail plane to Manley Hot Springs for many years). I got to fly with him once, round trip from Fairbanks to Circle Hot Springs, for lunch at the resort there, where my stepmom was kitchen manager. When I was very young, we built model planes together, usually balsa frames/spars with doped fabric, the kind that flew only in a tethered circle (radio control was out of the budget back then). There were always AOPA and EAA magazines around to read, he was a member of both, and I know he would have loved Draco, and Scrappy even more, most likely. I was so sad to hear of the incident, as I had been deeply engaged with the Backcountry Bushpilots gang on YT a few years ago. Now I'm looking for airshows & GA events near us that I can coerce my grandchildren to go with me. And eagerly awaiting the next installment, of course! Thanks for your great content and positivity. I don't covet what you have, but I would sure like to work for you, or someone like you, just sayin... 8)

@@ChevTecGroup I am not so sure that he has it all in CAD. A lot of the manufacture was done with single use molds, or using pre-existing parts as molds. The cowling, for example.

@@mckenziekeith7434 they way Mike does design, he always does it in CAD first. He even CNC machines his molds for carbon fiber parts. He also does computer aided testing on all the parts

I didn't even have time to fully form a disappointed frown about your breezing past the fart slip up without so much as a joke before you circled back around to address it. This is the commitment and attention to detail I'm here for.

Hey Mike, can you do a short talk about what the micro is, why you chose the one you like, etc? I'm aware it's a lightweight epoxy but that's about it.
