processes through before you cut or drill. Remember to think about it two
or three different times, measure it at least twice and think about what you
did and then cut or drill. Always be willing to trash a piece that you made
a mistake on and do it again. I have now built a Safari Helicopter from a
kit, did my own aluminum welding and a bunch of modifications of my own
design. The above process has worked pretty much.
