Cockpit Building Tips
This section contains what I consider the fun part of cockpit building. It is a collection of ideas and solutions for the problems I encountered during the years I worked on my project. Don't expect groundbraking stuff here. These tips are not about inventing the wheel.
All ideas are my intelectual property, but fellow builders may feel free to reproduce (and maybe enhance) them in their own cockpit projects. If anyone wants to use my designs for commercial purposes, let's discuss how such a venue could secure unspeakable riches for both of us...
Use these tips as you see fit, but do so at your own risk! Please do not hold me accountable for mishaps that might occur while trying to follow my advice. The tools used to build a cockpit can turn into deadly weapons in the hand of an unskilled hobbyist (that might be true for a simple screwdriver, and even more so for a razor-sharp cutter). Caution is a must whenever you use a tool. Good luck to all of you - and always remember: Reinventing the wheel can be fun!
