Still thinking about an RV-14

Yeah, it's not uncommon for my hands to be beat up, but sheetmetal work provides SO MANY unique opportunities for new cuts and holes. I got lucky yesterday; the drill bit hit my fingernail instead of tearing a hole in the flesh like the last two times.
 
The first part of the build on a RV almost always goes the quickest for a variety of reasons. As the build progresses and the assemblies become more complex, require not included components, and/or offer opportunities for modifications off plans, the pace tends to slow down. The key is to chip away at it as often as you can and also not to succumb to indecision paralysis over mods and aftermarket components.

Gotta build up them calluses.
