Your work looks incredible! I would be interested to see an overall shot of the fuselage if possible? If not, these incredible close ups will suffice. I am a great big fan of the Horten itself so this build is incredibly satisfying. Sampson W.S. Yu's version is a touchstone for me!

Hello All,, it has been ages since I have been around much less any bench time.. dealing with an elderly parent with health issues and advancing Dementia/Alzheimer's .......... It hasn't been a great year.

I have been chipping away late nights at my bird and slow but sure am getting things done. I hope everyone is doing well, and I hope for more free time to get on here more frequently

As always Thanks for lookin! :)

Welcome ”back” Handiabled!

Sorry to hear about your year.
Hopefully bench time will help making the last month of this year better!

And the bird? Looking fantastic!

Handi, that sounds like a tough time you've been through. Situations like this demand a lot of mental energy.
I wish you all the best and the stability to master this challenge.

Beautiful woodwork you did on your Horten. Very nice!

Handi, I can sympathize 100%. Hang in there thru those challenges and get your work bench escapes when you can. They are a welcome change from the realities we have to handle.

Nice work on your Horten!
