[QUOTE="Taylorman55, post: 318713, member: 1290"] We are officially putting the 1949 PA14 back together. Every nut and bolt taken out. Frame was sandblasted front to back. About 20 hours of sandblasting into this frame. That's 20 hours of blasting, add in time refilling the tanks and filtering the blasting media. Dad has a lot more patience compared to me. A few weld repairs and minor tube replacements were needed after the sandblasting, but overall, very happy with how good of shape the original frame was in. 2 coats of white Epoxy, followed by 2 coats of black epoxy. Stringers put on, and this week dad is fitting the carbon fiber floors. Fabric for fuselage to follow shortly.
