I don't know Bruce, but I purchased one from Macs Airplane Covers, and for the $220 I'd do it again without hesitation. It's a "cowl blanket", fits awesome with more straps than you would need and holds the heat.

My wife and I have been making one out of a HD Space blanket that will fit in a large kitchen Ziploc bag. I hate how much room the insulated bags takes up in the baggage. Should have pictures today or tomorrow of spacesaver engine cover.

I’ll give it another go on making one . I like how Tim cut out a piece for the nose bowl then sewn it on. I was trying to fold it over and pin in place. I had a couple of military wool blankets I was gonna use but hated to ruin them if it didn’t turn out. I wish I was out flying today but I’m stuck at work again, damn weather...

Folds down to the size of a book

And of course there is an 18 hp Ski Doo in the background. Did I notice you have the hangar decorated for Christmas with lights?

Great day of flying in the North East, lunch on Oneida lake with my friends in a 12, they are having a big snowmobile drag race on the end of that lake this weekend. Then flew north up over tug hill and then turned west and flew over to Lake Ontario and flew down the shore line. I was surprised at how much of Ontario was froze over, very rare. Fun day.

It was a nice day to fly. Heat sucks in these things. So does the snow. Maybe we will get some more.

When things were simple.Had a ton of fun on those.Now you need a laptop to figure out why the damn thing won't run.
If you ever wanted to learn about reversion in an intake tract just take the air cleaner off and watch it spit fuel back at you.
I may just want one of those again:smile:

Yes, but with the newer sleds you can actually go somewhere. Yesterday Laura and I put 100 miles on, overnighted in Woodstock and rode home the next day.
I'm all for simple but I've been stuck in the woods too many times. Old school cool Glenn!

90% of my mechanical education is from being too lazy to walk home. Still true today.

Went flying on Tuesday, put 140 miles on the sled yesterday and fixing a dent in a 172 today. Life is good.

Sat Feb 17 Twitchell lake cookout on the ice at 1pm. Twitchell is 5 miles NE of Old Forge airport. For those interested we are also thinking of doing an overnight at Dave's camp. We could shuttle in cars down to restaurant 4 miles away for dinner and drinks. Bring sleeping bag/ mattress and 100' extention cord to plug in plane. Looks like a low of 15 to 20 Saturday night.

You could probably land a plane at flat rock inn at Constableville. another place would be hillbilly inn between Copenhagen and champion, there’s a nice field behind it also pleasant lake is down over the bank. My grandfather used to keep his float plane down there
