   No Stan...not how much weight..although I guess I wan't to know that too.

   How much money? If I'm going to stay in Michigan I need one to fly to work every day. I'm getting road rage although it's been much better lately because were working in less populated area.

   Blue:   I built it from a kit.  Lots of hours...the price depends on what each persons time is worth.

   Articcat:   I see deer occasionally.  Its just a 16 acre woods...but I usually get a deer when I hunt.  I didnt go hunting this year as I have been too busy rebuilding.

   I thought maybe you were hunting from the gyro.  More fun than sitting in a tree stand all day.  You bag one and then just radio the 'support team' to go and pick him up.  :)

   Is that part of the tree that came through the roof...over there by the mini-hoe?

   I would be nervous about those big trees right next to the shop, after your experience.

   Nice looking place. Can you get some shots of the cupalos up on the roof? I remember the pics as you were building building them.

   Dave:  the tree that came through the roof is gone.  The tree that you see on the ground is  the one that got my truck. Its a hackberry tree and was 127 feet tall.  I am going to make a curved stairway out of it someday. 

   Here is a picture of the cupola.
