Big day today, but not without its weird trials and tribulations. Gathering the parts for the nose wheel, link and fork installation proved to be challenging. I found that Van's did not supply the correct part. I needed a MS21045-6 nut, but a -4 was in the parts bag. Fortunately my friend Dean stopped by and he had the correct one. Problem number 1 solved. Problem 2 was more intriguing. The MS21083-N6 axel nut was found, then disappeared. Paul, Ron and I searched for 15 minutes looking for the darn thing. Scoured the work bench, moved the workbench, moved the tool box, we essentially looked on top of and under everything. Then I went to scratch my head for a real itch and when I lifted my arm - there it was - the nut solidly attached to my magnetic watch band on my iWatch. That had to be the weirdest and funniest thing to happen on this build. With that nut found we three nuts went on to complete the installation of the fork on the nose gear leg and the wheel on the fork. Then came the big moment when Ron and Paul lifted the fuselage and I pulled the saw horses out from under the plane and now there it is sitting on all three wheels. Wahoo!!!
