Just wondered why you chose to go with 2:1 instead of 1.5:1.

this piece is pissing me off.

i think you underestimate how many people WOULD stand to watch your videos. Short or Long. Chapters are appreciated of course for the longer ones. ;-) They are very helpful.

I really appreciated your videos when I started my build, really great insights in each video. Curious, are you still building and not videoing, or did you abandon your build? Hope you’re doing well!

Ha, I’ve used that main squeeze to build everything so far….

For what it's worth, I've gotten the most value out of your RV-10 build vids along my journey and hope you continue to publish... I watch your vids closely as I'm going into each step and heed your advice and ideas as needed. Thank you for what you've done here, and hope to see more soon.... good luck with the rest of the build!

OOO WOW.... WERE COMING UP ON 2 YEARS WITH NO VID... ARE YOU STILL DOING IT

ITS BEEN A YEAR.... WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET THE NEXT VID?

"GET TO IT" that should be your CATCH PHRAZE

thought for sure those nose ribs would come up in this vid.....

I am also working on the vertical stab and I could not see how the rubber ring helps. It was more of a hindrance to me than anything! 100% agree

Great channel sir. Im about to put the -10 rudder together here. Did you use a 2x or 3x? I have only an ATS 3x but I feel comfortable with it on the -3'

I don't know if i would have thought to count on a piece of paper and then poured it in the bag.... I would have probably dropped a few as i handled them wrong LOL great videos as always.

We usually were careful to start in the middle of things and work our way out. Almost like spreading a sticker. The fwd spar is already locked down I don’t think it will “walk” any direction for the small area that’s being riveted . Great work !!

😂😂 we all need a big ass bag of bacon bits !!! Love your humor and these videos !

I thought I remember which ever view you are looking at in the drawing fwd or back , the shop head should be there the view you are seeing. The direction of the head does take into account if it’s a tension or shear head and for that load that is accounted for.

looks great and it may seem like a mind numbing task but its a huge task to undertake that whole process.

if you only know how many holes i've had to go back and step up or actually drill . Great progress!

Love the expression of huh.... surprising yourself is a nice surprise when our work turns out better than we thought it would. . The suicide bit we tended to use when a micro stop wont fit, knowing were crazy and could really kill the part with a bad countersink :)

That sealant will stay in your hair for weeks :) Sheetmetal mechanic for 25 years and its strong stuff also when it sets. .

Still enjoying the build :) Thanks for doing this.

looks great !!! great to see the skill becoming better! Having done limited GA sheet metal Things look great! 26 years of Commercial sheet metal here, plus the thin stuff for me is around .032 :)

I've watched two other builders and was wanting to explain exactly what you did helping align things to them. Thanks for sharing that with folks :) Glad you have a helper lol.

Love the humility, knowing about the spray guns i did wonder if that was the issue. Hopefully to build one soon :) Thanks for sharing your info.

Great Videos! i appreciate how you even mention for some that may not know the light reflection issues. Also I love the fluted reamers. More cutting points make a much better hole. I've done Commercial aviation for 26 years and a lot of it Sheetmetal. GA uses such thinner skin. I am hopeful to build a 10 once the things settle down with Vans.

A&P mechanic here and worked heavily in the Sheetmetal part. it will get better, love your concern and patience for the skill. Have subscribed and will be following.

Are you still building ? Havnt seen any videos in a while and was just wondering. I have just started my tail kit

How is the chapter 11 of VANs going to affect you guys?

Nice hack. Thanks for sharing this. I’m just starting my 14 empennage and was googling for some countersink help and came across your video. I just got back from HD with these steel supports and a sheet of 1/8 practice aluminum. This will make things a lot easier

Like others here - I miss your videos but I understand how long it takes to edit the footage. Hope your build is going well! -Brian from central Oregon

Would you recommend a quick build kit for the wings? Trying to decide whether I want someone else doing all this for me and not knowing what was done….

Are you still building? Haven’t seen a video in awhile?

Can you explain how you use Boelube?

Your videos have been so helpful as I prepare for my -14A build. You are a natural teacher. I know how much work is involved in shooting and editing video and I appreciate you taking the time to do this and share with the rest of us here on YT.

Believe it or not, this "boring" video was a help to me- like so many of your others have been. I picked up my RV-14A wing kit at the factory (we live in Central Oregon) two weeks ago. I wasn't going to open the crates and inventory the parts because I plan to start on the empennage first but it's not available yet. I didn't want wing kit parts taking up shelf space in my hangar for a year while I'm working on the other kit. I had a sneaking hunch that Van's would probably require that we inventory the kit within some time frame but I was sticking my head in the sand. You confirmed there is in fact a deadline to do the inventory in 30 days. Sigh...so much easier to just leave them in the crates. Maybe I'll buy a couple more shelves. Anyway, thanks again for sharing your build.

Another very helpful video. Did you get the 1/4" or 3/16" Harbor Freight pneumatic blind rivet tool?

Another great video. I learn something important in just about every one of your videos. Thanks so much for sharing them.

You do some great work. Great attention to detail. You're giving me a lot of good ideas for my -14A build. Thanks for sharing!

Great idea. I'm learning a lot from your videos. Do you find 400 grit sandpaper works best?

I'm starting a -14A build soon. What pressure are you using at the rivet gun and how far closed do you have your air flow regulator? Your videos are very helpful!

Hi Missile Twenty Nine, wondering where you have gone? Love your videos, you are helping me through my own RV10 build!

I saw you answered a question regarding whether or not you are still building. We are happy to hear you are. I’m sure it’s a ton of work to post videos. Looking forward to them whenever you can!

I used a bandsaw for the cuts of the flange and web. Cutting the flange vertically with the rib laying flat on the bandsaw table worked great; just go carefully and slowly.

Awesome videos, you have just the right amount of detail and are very informative. Keep up the great work.

Good videos. Keep up the good work. You mentioned a foot pedal switch for your squeezer. Can you provide more information. Who makes it? Where did you buy it? Pros and cons? Would you recommend it?

Are you still building?

I struggled greatly to get those ribs into the skin. It probably took like 2 hours to finally get everything to line up.

I am finishing up my RV10 rudder this week. Your channel has been fantastic for filling in the gaps between the plans and reality. One question is with the amount of time you spend filing after cutting a piece a little long. Now that you are farther along in your build, is this still your method? Other builder videos seem to cut on the line and do less cleanup. I want to get it right but not create extra work for myself for marginal benefit.

Continue to love your videos. We are still in the process of setting up our workshop, so we are aways from starting the build, but I love seeing what the process will look like. Would you mind indicating if there are particular forums/build logs/resources you find most useful when you need help with something, or need a work around? There is so much good information out there, I hardly know where to start.

For radiusing the front of the rib -- thanks for pointing out the diagram in section 8! Do you only radius off the bottom corner of the flange where it meets the web or do you continue it all the way through the flange, effectively shortening the length of the flange?
