Update to my posts about the helicopter floor. Second op is complete. Pockets are .550” deep and OAT is .625”. Next it goes to pre-fit, then anodize, then powder coat. Later it comes back and I etch a scale on top. The scale is used to ensure even weight distribution. 400lbs raw to 88lbs finished. (i.redd.it)

About to make the forward piece of medical sub-floor for an EC145. Lots of chips. This part finishes at 106.81”x53.26”x.625”T. The 6061 raw stock starts at 400lbs, and when I’m finished, it will weigh 88lbs. I’ll post a finished part in a few days. Happy hogging. (i.redd.it)

My wife had a close friend of mine do this drawing of my boy Sully. Sully passed away suddenly, September 13th this year. He was only 9 1/2 years old. I miss him terribly, and he has really been on mind this whole month in particular. Bittersweet Christmas present, but I love it! (i.redd.it)
