Have you checked in with your local EAA chapter? You just may find that
there's another builder who is in your area. I am only about 60 miles
away from you (Bloomington-Normal) although I don't have much in the way
of tools since I am not the builder of my Velocity.
Through the local EAA chapter, though, I have found others in my own
town that are builders (not necessarily Velocity, but one guy is
building a Cozy) and they have helped me immensely with maintenance and
troubleshooting. I even had some fiberglass help with repair of a
rudder and fuel sump.
