The Pedal Gee Bee

Time Spent: 2.25 hours
Total Time: 2.25 hours

It has been said that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. That’s how it felt tonight as construction officially began on the Gee Bee. I cut out the fuselage, seat, seat back, and wings tonight. I started with the jig saw, but found that the band saw does better, more even-radious curves. DUH!… That’s what it’s made for.

So. It begins. Whether it will be done for my children or my Grandchildren is yet to be seen. I so desperately want to do this. Not Only for Sydney, but for me. I need a “win”, something tangible.

Hopefully, somewhere up there, Grandpa’s smiling. Thanks Grandpa.
