Call me Skip, call me Jerry , or call me Scarey.
I'm in the middle of my mid-life crisis.
So, cut me some slack.

Modifications from Plans:
CozyPlan Unabridged Dikshunary

Over the years I've spent building this Plane, I've come to know many of the terms used in the "Tablets of the Holy Flying Grail" (here on referred to as the Plans.), mean one thing to the Designer… and quite something else to the Builder. I affectionately call this new language CozyPlan.

I've put together a list of terms and their respective true meanings in an effort to promote a better understanding of what's involved. (As well as to promote World Peace.)

Fabricate : --Buy if you can afford it.
Pop Off: --Pry with crowbar and frown with dismay at the resulting holes
Lightly Pop Off: --Pry with whatever is handy, thereby gouging the foam on a smaller scale, causing more frowns.
Slide: --RAM with great difficulty tearing whatever you are trying to slide.
Spline Sand:-- Dig nice divots in the foam while trying to spline sand.
Carefully Align: --If it lines up on the first try, you've screwed up somewhere else.
Carpenter's Level:-- Get a Smart Tool.
Chewing Gum Stage:-- Get a Fein Detail Sander w/cutting blade.
LWX and LWY:-- Terms designed to produce a bald spot on your head from scratching it.
Authorized Supplier: --A supplier that pays royalties.
Unauthorized Supplier:-- Satan.
