Just take a hacksaw along. If his plane don't fit just cut the rudder off. That thing is only used for steering on the ground anyways!

Brian,

Don't worry he is just throwing up a few office walls and doing all of the wiring in the joint. You know they call him Sparky right?

I found a new Steel building that I couldn't pass up. The economy thing has it's pros and cons I guess. It just happened to work out for us.

Thanks,
Bryan

Listen up guys..... This is one of the best fields within a 1000 mile radius. wide open spaces with two runways. Manicured grass, and lots of room for your trailers. Dave and Al know what it takes to put on a great show, so pilots will be taken care of.

You will definately see me there ringing out Haases planes.

Id love to keep talking up this field and event, but I need to do some reading up on "how to wire a sign shop for dummies"

quick question to any electricians. For a 3 way switch, do I hook up the black, white, and bare wire to the switch? And the red wires usually go to the ground if im not mistaken. Oh well, its a metal building so it shouldnt burn.

Last I checked you twist all the colors together, just make sure you twist the red on to the black not the black to the red.
