I went to the local chapter. Most of the guys there built an ultralight in
the 60's, and that was it....

I am not saying anything bad about that chapter, or the EAA, but I need a
little more guidance. I am looking at cost verses weight & stength. Any
words of advice besides "Join EAA"?

I've been to three local chapters. The first one has about 20 people show
up,
nothing much happens there. The second one has about 30 people show up,
I think I was the only one under 65 (maybe 70), no one was talking about
building anything. The third one has about 60 people show up, everyone is
building something, great conversations before and after the meeting. Guess
which chapter I joined? ;^)
