Tom Ford and I were gonna make this sign and hang it in our hangars. The worst are the ones that want to argue about your answer. :lol:

All control cables I have installed in the past have been at recover. This is the first time installing with cover on the bird. So my advice, even though not solicited, is to never, never buy a pre-made set to install on a covered cub.
Every fairlead and pully needs to come apart. Pulling a cable with one bare end would be a simple process. Never too old to learn the hard way.........and no pheasants in the freezer yet.
And that's a bad thing how? I used to have a girlfriend who would read a particular film reviewer in the paper. If they hated the movie it was going to be good. Worked every time. Just because someone doesn't want to do something your way doesn't mean they're unsafe or even disrespectful. The person who fails to endorse your advice is not belittling it. Perhaps they're even looking for something they can eventually join you in, but haven't gotten there yet. The mere act of asking indicates some level of respect, so "Accentuate the Positive" and enjoy that - even if it's not what you'd hoped for.

I definitely get that, but also it depends on whether they're freeloaders or good customers. I think Redowl is right in the point he makes, but I also agree that it's a different point than you had in mind. Asking for advice then insisting on receiving a particular answer is not honest asking.Save the time and don't ask. It gets old when 10 people or more a day ask you questions
They usually ask for my opinion and then when I give them my experience and opinion they want to argue about it. Like wireweinie posted, they just want affirmation when they argue about my response. It works for me and I don't need any practice.And that's a bad thing how? I used to have a girlfriend who would read a particular film reviewer in the paper.

Total time to get the rudder cable fairleads out plus post on supercub.org 19 min. Sorry Dave.

Easier to inspect next time.Yeah, but I don't have a hole in my cub ;-)
Dave just wanted to save some pheasants this year and didn't want to admit it to the morning coffee crowd.

Fun fact the rudder cable attachment to the rudder won’t fit through the metal fairlead holes in the fuselage.

And just think about what all he had already done to discover that. Don't feel alone, I learned that lesson the hard way as well.You're going in the wrong direction RBW :lol::lol::lol:
