Brief Description:  Rotisserie 1 Starting up after 2 week break

I've had a two week break from working on the airplane. (Go see my misc section).

So now the garage is back to being an airplane factory. I picked up my engine mount from my brother Ed. Van's let me have it in advance of the whole finish kit. I'll pick up the finish kit later, probably Feb, Mar.

So first thing to do is drill the engine mount holes thru the fire wall. I picked up a 3/8 to 1/4 bushing at the aviation ACE hardware store. And a small 1/4 to 3/16 somewhere. Maybe I got it from Vans. Anyway, these bushings let me center an AN3 bolt down the center of the engine mount and drill the firewall. Later I'll enlarge the holes to 3/8.
