Mike, *YOU* seem to know me all too well. Just last night I spentthe whole evening reading the new plansbuilt directory with glee. Imust have a new project you see. Problem is I am in no better positionto buy the Stallion or Lionheart kit now than I was three years ago whenI made the decision to build a Piet! A Steen Skybolt looks like a greatproject. RV's are awesome. I've got this EA-81 core that needs anairframe, I've got a slightly used set of pietenpol plans, a bunch ofjigs for it hummm... But first my daughters could use some rockingchairs, and my wife wants a cabinet for her doll collection. We surecould use a new refrigerator, and I'd love to add to my toolcollection... $$$$Must.. Not.... Spend....Ohh...Better go flying to clear my head.Stevee________________________________________________________________________________
