emp1.jpg (60574 bytes) All the parts are cut to size and pre-formed at the factory...
emp2.jpg (63804 bytes) They are also coated with a plastic film to keep them from being scratched during the building process...
emp3.jpg (51073 bytes) All the fiberglass pieces, as well as form blocks for installing some of the skins...
emp4.jpg (48671 bytes) All of the skins are pre-cut and pre-punched.  A Couple of the skin's corners incurred some minor damaged during shipping, but can be straightened easily...
emp5.jpg (51895 bytes) You can also see my worktable that I have the skins on, you can get the plans for it HERE.  Simply download the file and double click to extract the plans.
