Hello. I'm Piero from Italy. A few years ago I have started to build an aircraft, the F-8L Falco, an Italian design from the 50's. Built initially in Italy, in the 80's once discontinued, a passionate from the USA bought the rights for the aircraft and started to sell drawings and/or kits.
You can check at http://www.seqair.com.
I have some technical background on lathes, mills and so on from the old days in school for aeronautical constructions.
I don't have that much time to spend online but when possible I will give as much as possible my contribution

Welcome, Piero,
This is a great forum… a lot of us are beginners eager to learn from those like you who have extensive experience and training as machinists.
All the best of luck with your airplane, Sir. That is an ambitious project! Any ideas, tips, etc. you may have to share with us will be definitely appreciated, I'm sure.

Wooly Mammoth, don't get me wrong. I don't have extensive experience. I can say to have some experience, a lot of books and manuals and I'm in a great need of obtaining excellent quality products.
