Bob, the lack of active interaction on your build thread(s) does NOT indicate lack of interest. I am only 1 of all the members that check in every day and simply read all the new posts.
Your build log is now 6 pages deep with 133 comments and 2443 VIEWS...Ponder that sir....... seems to me , relative to other CEF Topics, that thread is pretty popular

Thanks all, and as I mentioned to Kim "It's nice to be missed." Not intentional, having nothing relevent to contribute I just have not played in the Cox Engines sandbox lately and dead trees and this RX-7 have been taking up my free time. I do love dealing with them however and both show no signs of letting up. Sad

Bob IS alive! I've been googling obits for the last week. Thanks for popping up, Bob. Glad you are still vertical.

I was also watching your RX-7 build log, and was entertained by it. I still owe you photos of my brake bleeder, but saw you and your son got it done...and I've been awfully busy doing things around the house (remove old gas-insert fireplace, re-assemble oldest son's recently acquired 2014 (previously wrecked) Ninja 650. We are.getting ready to re-roof the house, add another gas insert,and follow up with siding and new windows. Real world responsibilities keep me from playing with my toy airplanes. Hopefully this is a short season of Responsible Man.
