pfrederi 17,515 #1 Posted April 6, 2018 No C-130 involved so the Commando wasn't prop blasted but she was airborne. She was a roller I bought several years ago. Tore her down last fall sand blasted and paints most the parts. (Hood and fender are only primed), has not been painting weather lately. Been reassembling her over the last few weeks on a table in the heated part of the shop, with lots of interruptions for snow removal, power outages etc. She is now ready to roll out for a test firing carb adjustment etc. (If the weather ever improves...it snowed this morning.) time to jump off the work table AIRBORNE!!!! 18 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 8,461 #5 Posted April 6, 2018 like your project, I too like to suspend large projects from my cellar ceiling, I fly fish with a pontoon kick boat, using a pulley to lift the boat and using a roller stool to look at it for maintenance at eye level, and comfort lets me do a number of improvements. ready for fishing.
