Keep posting man. Hello from Brazil!

[@alanswanson5642]

You have an understanding wife to give you the garage lol

[@mkburcar1]

Well done and thanks for posting man. Your dog seemed a lot more excited about than your wife, but I'm sure she'll come around. Great so see you have your Pops there helping out also. Enjoy!

[@grantnelson]

Great job so far. Ready for Episode 6!

[@sailorlee15]

i know! A lot has happened!

[@aflyingman]

Great stuff Lee. Did you happen to record making that fixture for creating the tail bends? Great vids so far and looking forward to the build!

[@sailorlee15]

I think i recorded it but lost the footage. once I get going on the tail again I'll record a little more about that jig. It worked really well.

Gotta post another video! I have the same tubing kit. Currently building some javron wings. Curious what you're gonna do for all the tabs and things that get welded on for stuff like the pulleys, floor boards, etc.

[@sailorlee15]

Hey Max, I've taken time off the project to build a new shop but im back on and building the landing gear now. I've ordered all the brackets from Javron. Met Jay at OSH and realized I could buy them all from him!

[@MaxRunia]

@@sailorlee15 do you know if Jay buys a tubing kit or do they do all the coping in house? Some kit manufacturers buy the tubing kits from vr3 like we did, so I'm kinda curious if Javron is doing so

[@Willy-NillyEngineering]

Thanks for the update. It’s difficult to find Super Cub build videos. Have you decided where to source wing components?

[@sailorlee15]

Hey Ted, I'll be getting them from a company called Javron. They make a really nice kit.

[@Willy-NillyEngineering]

Good choice, I visited the Javron facility this spring. Everything they make is first rate.

[@outcold1982]

Nice work! So how long has it taken to get the fuselage done?

[@sailorlee15]

too long! About a year. You could do it in a couple months easy.

[@Project2Aero]

any updates on this thing?

[@sailorlee15]

Lots, video is coming soon!
