Have been working away steadily on the rebuild. Having a heavy cold and World Cup soccer on SBS hasn't help my motivation over the last two weeks but have meade significant progress in the last two days.

to my good mate mental4astro for all his advice and particularly his router which we used to cut my rocker box altitude bearings and seats.

The rocker box is now almost complete. Needs more lacquer and teflon attached.

Altitude bearings need to have laminate affixed. Having trouble sourcing suitable laminate. Don't really want to spend $120 for a sheet when I need two pieces 1m x 0.3m. Looks like I'll have to keep looking
. If anybody has suggestions they'd be most welcome.

Was hoping to be ready this weekend and head out to Katoomba airfield but it looks like I'll not be ready.
