The wife and I went to Avery tools at Hicks Airport in Fort Worth. We actually spent a couple of hours going on a tour of the facility with the owner. He showed us the machine shop where he produces some of the tools himself and an RV he is working on. The staff was so pleasant to work with and they made you feel at home.
At the end of our visit/purchase we went to a hangar on the airport and got to see a completed RV-12 that was waiting on the DAR to sign off for flight. This was the icing on the cake for me to get on with the build.
The total so far on tools has reached $1,400.00, but it has been a blast to get all these new toys!!!!
First pass went to Avery and went over the top.
Forgot the neumatic rivet tool!!
Also had to get some basic shop tools, on the advice of the dog!
