    Stephen I am almost done with the air frame, found support to be very good, never had any problem getting Roger or Sabastian on the phone if needed. great people to work with. I have been to 6 open house events and hope to fly my plane there this year. I cant believe that anyone had support problems. the builder site is also an excellent asset to anyone building, happy building!!!   dan

    I am currently in Zapata Tx.  

    My 750 airframe is complete.  

    As far as a shop, hang your air and electrical from above.  Build your bench as long as you can from the crate that Zenith sends you.  Use a slightly slanted vertical sheet for storing the aluminum sheets.  

    Once you make me a friend, I will pm pictures of my set up. with more details.  spend the money on a palm drill, about 120 now from florida, worth its weight in gold after 30000 holes.  I have built two airplanes.

    get back to you later.
