Do you still have that Swiss muffler? That seemed pretty neat.

Looking good, and looking familiar ;)

The fin stands out to me. I'll be interested in seeing how you tie it in. Are you extending the horizontal stabilizers too? I wonder about reinforcing the...

I'll get a PM to you pronto!

I could use those if nobody has claimed them.

LOL. Just so you know, I ended up spending a hour researching ELT mounting requirements since I'm welding tabs too right now. Not on my plans.

Wow. Look at how much those wheels are working. That is a better demonstration than most of the promo videos I've seen.

Very nice!

Nice work. Nice workshop.

I don't have that truss work along the bottom longeron on the left side. Did I miss why you did that? It looks like a good idea.

Somewhere I have a...

Most cheering thing I've heard in a long time. Well done, and steady as it goes!

Thanks. I caught the landing.

But Youtube kept going to ads every 30 seconds as it was getting close. Really?

Is that for GPS mapping? At first I chuckled at thinking of an iPhone stuck on a snowmachine. But why not?

Thanks, Stewart. Just yesterday I was trying to figure out a decent mount. I hadn't run across the Nato mount. Looks like it works for tablets, too.

Thanks Gary. The formula from that website is what I was thinking about:

cloud base = (temperature - dew point) / 4.4 * 1000 + elevation

I always wondered about that. How do you know you are 500 feet below a flat overcast?

I remember a formula dividing the dewpoint spread by some amount and multiplying by 1000 to get AGL, but I've...

Thanks. I was planning on split blocks and I have a nice set of end mills. I like the option of adjusting the bore with shims if necessary.

Thanks Charlie. How about drilling out pillow blocks from blocks of delrin? Is it a heat issue?

I see blocks available on ebay.

I weighed things and it turns out the assembly above weighs 5...

Yes! Thanks.

BTW, the Bella Twin story is just plain amazing.

It's been 30 years since I read it, so I might be the one that has it wrong. But for some reason I remember him being married to an Indian wife who kept calling him a coward because he wouldn't take...

I knew you'd say that! I really want to use bushings like that here and on the stick torque tube assembly. So far I've kind of been overwhelmed in locating supplies and also design. Would you use a...

I agree, Sky. All my years building and working on farm implements makes me want a grease zerk whenever there is steel to steel movement. But looking more into it, I noticed that the Aztec rudder...

Heh. It almost hit 60 here today. Last year we had deep snow this time of year.

But I've been watching that storm from far away. Hang tight!

Right now, the only stuff removed was slag from the weld penetration. The outer tube is 7/8 with .058 wall thickness. I like the bullet idea, but I think I'm so close now that it's just a matter of...

Thanks everyone for the encouragement. I'm starting to regroup and engaged in a few sub-projects.

The Wag design for the pedal assembly calls for a torque tube within a torque tube. Because it is...

Andrew Garcia did with (if I recall right) a single-shot .22. But that was back in those days when mountain men were really mountain men. (Or his Tough Trip through Paradise was embellished....).

I had to laugh because this describes me. I grew up in Montana and somehow ended up in eastern Washington. I fished only for trout until I got here. So, now I go after steelhead and trout when I...
