Heres my problem. I do some of my assembly in the livingroom of our home and my wife thinks I'm crazy and that nobody else does this. If your assembly shop is in the house to lets here about it. Maybe that would help me with the debate.   [/b]

For the first year and a half it was in the house and garage.  Then it got

to big and I moved to the hanger.......my wife was not very happy with that

because now I wasn't "home".........tell her that she needs to be careful

what she asks for......

I brought home all parts possible for deburring.... right on the coffee table.... of course, I put down towels and cardboard.  But that way I was (sort of) home with the wife, but managed to get some much needed work done..... while watching the tube!   (--;

When I built my Pitts S1S we lived in a much smaller house. I kept the upper wing on our dining room table for a year, the prop was under the bed,etc. 

Between the 2 planes, my wife's car has been outside for 7 winters. It probably helps that my wife is commercial and instrument rated, and she is looking forward to a plane we can fly together.

I did not do any assembly / deburring in the house, but the parts storage was in many rooms.  You must not have been as insightful on the purchase of the house.  My real estate agent did not know how to handle a customer who specified the size and configuration of the garage , three cars, no posts, as the first priority

I started building in a 2.5 room apartment and the size of the room I called my "workshop" was 96 sq ft. At least the workbench and the compressor fitted in there.

Claudia and Martin Sutter built their first RV-6 in their living room - just rolled back the carpet and went to work.  I built mine in the garage and stored all the finished pieces and some parts in the house: wing cradle and tail feathers in the bedroom, canopy and cowl in the girls' closets, etc.  It made for some interesting conversation with visitors.  RV-10 tail feathers were stored above the kitchen cabinets until we moved back to TX and now have a hanger in the back yard.  That's the only way to go.



Whatever you do, you better have her on board 100% or your life will be miserable.  "When Momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy".
