It's good to have another Image on the forum.


What you have accomplished so far, looks great. Keep it up and you will be done before you know it.


See you around. :thumbsup:

charvey1,
I liked looking at your pictures the laminated ribs are unique as most TD's are not built that way. You will not be sorry you built it that way, also when you start nailing the roofing plywood to the walls/ribs you will hear a solid thud (like steel). I know I did too! Your rig sure looks Good! Keep up the good work!
