Note to self-
When cutting small wood pieces on the bandsaw, take phone out of pocket and turn
it on silent.
A few weeks ago I was momentarily distracted at said bandsaw and cut a chunk out
of the end of my left middle finger. About a half-dime size chunk.
The real problem came when I couldn't get it to stop bleeding after 24 hours. (Curse
you, Coumadin!)
Ended up In the ER and they got it stopped- $800.00 LATER! I did, however end up
with an extra 2 weeks off work. It's hard to turn the tiller with your left
dirty finger wrapped.

Gardener,
I, unfortunately, will be in Accra, Ghana, West Africa. I wish I could. I hope
to go to Oshkosh for a few days, though.

I was strongly advised by a buddy with two fingers missing on his right hand.

Well. .. got the spar splice done. .
Put fabric on top yesterday. . Covered the bottom today.
Not that bad of a repair. . Ordered tubing to just build another
Axel. .. probably easier than fixing the original.
Engine is next. .. flying again soon
Jeff

Jeff; don't feel like the Lone Ranger. I'm glad nobody can see Scout right now.
The wings are still off the airplane and all the inspection covers are off.
I still need to make glue repairs to a rib glue joint and a splintered spot
on the plywood leading edge of one of the wings before they will be done. The
tailwheel is coming off so I can take a slight twist out of the leaf springs
that has the tailwheel wearing unevenly. I need to patch a hole that I cut in
one of the ailerons to remove a loose piece of hardware that was rattling around
in there (a random nutplate). The engine cowlings are off and the plug wires
are dangling willy-nilly, since I'm replacing the cooling eyebrows with the
new set that I have. The front seat bulkhead is torn out; I'm rebuilding it
with a new one, along with Mike Cuy-style rudder stops and an extra brace across
the front of it to keep it from ever ungluing again when I "exercise" the
rudder bar to its full extents in a crazy crosswind. The turn and bank is out
of the panel for overhaul. The braided flex fuel line from the shutoff valve
to the gascolator is out of the airplane, to be replaced with aluminum tubing.
The aileron control cables are dangling in the cockpit. The ELT battery is
out of date and needs to be replaced. The gear legs need touch-up paint, as
do two fabric repair patches at the lift strut attach points (still in pink).
Gaaa-!!! Will this thing ever fly again? Will the engine even start? Poor
Scout!!!

Oh, yeah, and I forgot... the centersection flop is coming off so I can replace
the mangled aluminum piano hinge with a steel one. The list of squawks seems
to be getting longer instead of shorter, and here we are almost halfway through
summer!!

Geez Oscar... I thought for a moment you were describing my last physical. I think
I sound more like Scout recently!
