I wanted to first start off with a video of the final product of what the shop lights look like. They turned out great for the amount of money that was spent. I would really have preferred to have had light boxes installed in the ceiling, but that’s money I Read more…
My second shipment of lights has finally arrived. I’m not sure why they are shipping all three lights in different boxes, but oh well. It was easy to add this second set of lights and oh man it has gotten nice and bright in the garage! I will definitely not Read more…
I got the first of three pairs of these lights in the mail today. I bought these from Lowe’s online. The model # is SH450505Q200 and the Lowe’s part number is 2500105. I like these for a couple of reasons. They are easily daisy chained using a standard outlet plug Read more…

While I’m waiting for this lockdown to conclude, I’m really just continuing my research. I wanted to discuss the build with my local EAA chapter here in Oklahoma City before I made the purchase of the empennage kit which would need to include tools as well. I’m hoping they will Read more…
I will say, this has been the most worrying part of this whole project in my mind. They don’t tell you much about how all of these systems interconnect when you are taking classes for your private pilot and your instrument rating and I’ve never looked under a panel to Read more…
I posted a request to see if anyone had an RV-10 that we could go see to the Central Oklahoma Aviation Facebook community a week ago when I was continuing my research about the RV-10 model. I had quite a few people let me know that they knew where one Read more…
I always love to have an image to drive towards. I’m kind of a short sighted guy, and having an immediate vision of what I’m going towards is awesome and motivating! So I started, of course, with a Google Images search of just “rv-10.” So many good options came up Read more…
