Jan 23, 2022     Got a wing cart - (4 hours)       Category: Workshop
A colleague and fellow builder alerted me to a posting on vansairforce of someone nearby getting rid of their RV-14 wing cart because they had progressed past the stage of needing it anymore. It was only about 1.5 hours' drive away at Brenham airport, a location I've flown to many times before but never driven to that airport before. After reaching out to that builder, I planned the meeting to pick it up, which ended up needing a bit of disassembly in order to fit in my Jeep Liberty SUV. Before heading back, I had lunch at the airport diner (which had just recently reopened under new ownership).

Once I got back home, I reassembled it using the existing screw holes and just a few new screws to replace some of the stripped ones. I noticed that the caster wheels also needed a bit of lubrication, so I added some oil too. One of my cats has already found it to be a nice place to rest, at least while the cart is still empty.
