Drill or pilot drill and ream?

Use them as a mold and do vacuum bagged carbon and glass layup.

Why would it be a major per the far’s if they don’t claim it’s increased power but a power balance for the pulses? Removing casting flash and minor cleanup that doesn’t affect strength or structural integrity could and is considered a minor change.

Ok, so you did the log entry for that ? Lol 😝

Anyone get the email from wicks? I am curious if this is a good material for gear legs or just a hype?

I know this is an old post but, I was going through some tools I inherited and saw this video Cub Bungees - YouTube and low and behold there it was. I had no idea what it was, I had initially thought it was a jack adapter. Now that I know what it is, I am now able to change cub bungee cords...

I finally bought an airless sprayer, I think I will look at the different tip options to make it equal to the 1.4-1.8 MM tip that polyfiber uses for the HVLP gun I have.

Shemya has real wind for days at time Gary, makes a Florida hurricane look like a microburst. so Yeah, I agree, real wind can change things...

They fray in the wind, rope is not as susceptible to the fraying. there are limits though considering what is used for an anchor.

One thing to consider is that LED nav lights really are affected by UV after a few years, the light sports at the flight school get bad sun fade in the plastic after 2-3 years. I would rather just change the bulb in the whelan housing and stick with the glass cover. YMMV. Tim

I thought that current guidance is the nav lights on prior to prop rotation so others near you can see that the airplane status has changed....

The oval is spring steel… the univair one is much lighter than the oval.

I bought the oval clips at stoddards 10 years ago, the teardrop ones from univair last week. I would like to buy some more of the oval ones but can’t seem to identify who made them. They are much heavier duty than the current ones. Thanks Tim

Depend on if it’s primary structural aluminum or steel, aluminum was not allowed by the faa for Boeing as a way to cut primary because of haz and potential for cracks. Steel is allowed for some structural parts that are welded. Trumpf is made in Germany and can cut 1200 inches per minute in .5”...

Are there any sodium filled exhaust valves for small continentals? ECI used to have a rotator in their 200/300 cylinders, no longer available but I am curious about finding any improvements for the small continentals. Tim

I just slide it in, the phillips bottle will not let it spill, I used to just screw in the 15W50 bottle but there was always a chance to spill if not careful, now its not an issue.

Best funnel ever!

spruce does it in Arizona, just need to give them the lengths and prices are not horrible...

Yes, I had a can and it would evaporate before I would get 2-3 seals done or the lid would get stuck. tubes are cleaner and I can stock 5-6 and always have fresh glue on the shelf.
