When all you have is a hammer......

Everything looks like a nail......


When all you have is CABLE TIES>>>>use them on EVERYTHING!!


Was trying to figure out how to get the foam to stay put, tape wasn't working, nails seemed like overkill, no quick set glue on hand, but LOTS of zip ties.....




Here's what the cockpit of the winnebago (thanks Tim R...long cabin short cockpit is now a family van!) is looking like tonight:


I also made a road trip this morning early to grab 2 more sheets of ply. I was trying to cobble together the pieces for the cockpit from left overs and thought it was a bit half-assed. I will have used a total of 22 sheets. Most of the extra was in tripling frame 89, a re-cut of the cabin top, and inefficient "nesting" of my larger panels. Not bad actually!
Thanks also to Gordon who dropped off 2 boxes of miscellaneous hardware etc......VERY GENEROUS!
