Who's going to be the first JGRO machinist to post a video of their JGRO machine. Seems like only the Joe2006 guys are posting videos. I'm still about 2 weeks away from cutting wood. Who's going to be the first one to step up and post a video?

Well, I will have to get busy again. I did post some more photos in my DT's jgro machine thread. If I am not disturbed by my beautiful wife or my other irons in the fire I might be able to get this up and running within a couple of weeks also.

Gliderguider,

Nice vid! What was the wing span on that bird? I have been wondering how I could post some vids but they were too big. Now I know, using YouTube is a grate idea…

Hi Rob,
The wingspan is 100 inches. I'm looking forward to seeing your videos too.

Dave-
Nice video...I was just curious at the time of the video did you/were you running your 1/2" leasdscrews or were you running stock per plans? Could you quickly list any substantial deviations from plans...i was hoping to go back and read your build, but i wanted the readers digest version.....Thanks.

I did almost everything stock. Except the 1/2 acme lead screws. Really not much different then that. I did use some wood screws rather than dowels in someplaces.

The plans are very complete. JGRO did a great job developing the design.
