Don't remove the block until all your bending, drilling, jig boring or whatever is done. Figure out a way to reference the block's edges safely away from your working area.

We've cleaned our basement and somehow have lost (misplaced I hope) 3 drawings. The tail section, 3 piece wing and regular wing dwg with the rib layout. I've found all the others. Anyone around MPLS that would be willing to let me make a copy of these??? I have my capstrip on order and I'm anxious to get going on the ribs as soon as it comes in. PS: Pietenpol Aircamper dwgs - not GN-1 Thanks!

I can also call his friend Paul if necessary Considering what he does for a living he could even be back in the middle east. If so I hope he's got a good supply of cantalopes and surgical tubing.
