When to inspect?
Jim,
There is only one inspection required in the USA. It is after completion and can be done by an FAA employee or DAR.
The FAA guys are picky, slow, and free. The DAR's are picky, quicker, and more expensive. Ours charges $300-400 but is very practical and pleasant. At the successful completion you will get a restricted airworthiness certificate with limitations and a flyoff area assigned. I suggest you ask for as large an area as you can get with airports at the extreme points.
You have to have all the access available as if doing a condition inspection. Have your log and pictures available as well as all the required paperwork. The FAA / EAA have publications regarding homebuilt certification that will give you all the details. I do suggest that you have an EAA Technical Advisor check your work 3 - 4 times during the build to catch anything overlooked that the DAR will not be able to see.
Don't look at the inspection as a hurdle, look at it as a last chance to save your rump.

Very clear answer Ralph and just what I was looking for. I have an EAA
meeting coming up this month that I am going to start asking questions at. I
have been keeping a littl quiet because I was the new guy. Now that I have
been to three meetings, I feel a little more comfortable in speaking up.
Jim!

When to inspect?
It should be added, an EAA Technical counselor, if he is doing his job, should fill out the proper forms outlining the inspections and send it to the FAA/EAA for documentation. It is a record the FAA likes to see and it can make your final inspection much more likely to go without any hiccups. The Tech counselor will help you prepare the paper work for final inspection, which can be a challenge in itself.
It is not required, however, but comforting if your a first time builder. It is nice to know someone qualified is looking over your shoulder.
