antonio4231 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Looking to buy materials for the open ez fuselage. Is there anyone out there that has purchased the foam and glass and epoxy, for a long/open-ez and then decided not to pursue the project? Would prefer the North Texas/ Southern Oklahoma area, to avoid shipping. Also looking to attend a "plane day" with someone in the same area, who is in the glass layup stage of their project.

mfryer Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 This probably will not help you much but I do have enough ply wood for the bulkhead, let me know if you are interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antonio4231 Posted September 19, 2007 Author Share Posted September 19, 2007 Thanks to everyone that replied. As a long time motorcycle rider, I know that almost anything can be had from the local cycle shop, for a price. I also know that many items can be found through other suppliers. While I am all for supporting my local businesses (ACS and Wicks), sometimes the budget dictates another path. ( I know, right now there is someone out there, poised to post, that if I am that conerned about costs I should never start the project). I have wanted to build a canard aircraft since I first saw a Vari-Ez on the cover of Popular Science in the 70's (which I still have), but for a number of years no plans were available:( , and time slipped by. Now in my middle age, I have determined that if I'm going to do this I have to start NOW! And while I will probably end up ordering the bulk of the materials though the approved suppliers, it would chap my hide to find out after the fact that there was a less expensive route.
