Re: My brother's Nova

Decided to make new motor mount towers rather than buy all new mounts. Made a jig to hold everything in place.

Cutting some tabs

Picked this up at the craft store. Works great for laying out radius.

Also got these tab magnets from Strong Hand Tools. Makes holding the tabs much easier.

Mounts burned in.
