Well after a few short hours on friday i reconstructed my edge.
After placing all of the puzzle pieces back in there homes it starting looking promising.I went to jay's repair shop saturday morning to get a few pointers.
He showed me how to strengthen a broke fuse,and yes i did the work.After all
the glue dried i carried my edge home, and got out the ole mirco fill man thats some
good stuff. I got up sunday morning and sanded and recovered what needed to be covered,and installed engine,radio gear.Off to the field for new maiden flight per larry."Yes larry" the fuse is twisted a little but i just want to beat on it.It sure flyies
different now but i'll manage.In the mortal words of larry lewis MAN I LOVE THIS HOBBY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I must say the picture of Patty looked real nice. It was obvious she was smiling at Robert.

Wow - Raptor is on it

The pic on the left was posted by JayBenson on 6-23 after Steve (Raptor357) "over hucked" his Wild Hare Edge. Most of us would have dragged on for months after that, if we even did decide to repair it. But the pic on the right was taken yesterday at the field as Steve was already back in action! His expression speaks for itself......nice work, dude!
