Hi Bob
I would be very interested in a copy of this 8 pages of how to do it.
I'm presently trying to manufacture some lenses as well.
Could you send me a copy to my private e-mail ( hpreusser@tiscali.ch ).
Best regards
Hans-Peter

Hi! Duncan
This forum is the most amazing source of information .... within two
hours
of my message going out a kind chap at Boeing "patched" me 8 pages of
method
and temperature suggestions! Should you wish I can send it through?
The Air World one stands too high to get into my trailor safely and has
a
different base, the existing Gold Wing one needs to be only about 1/4
inch
higher to be futher away from the heat of the bulb.
I've had a female plug roughly cut in aluminium but have a lot of
"burring"
to do to get the final shape cut out then I was going to try the vacuum
thing. Just skip reading the 8 page detail above it could be possible to
do
with some combination of methods.
regards
Bob H G-PTAG

Hi,
If anyone has one of these could you do me a favour and tell me the
measurement from the front of the collet to the back of the head? I have a
tight space that I need to get into and I need to know that it will fit
before I order one.
thanks

Hi Simon,
Depends if you are using the normal collet or the mini drill chuck (three
jaw grip).
The normal collet gives you about 6.3cm. If you are using the drill chuck
it is about 7cm.

| Subject: | Digital Balance - Request |
--> Europa-List message posted by: "William Mills" <combined.merchants@virgin.net>
Hi All,
Having read a recent e-mail on the forum about prop balancing, I think I should
weigh the blades of my Arplast to determine whether or not the blades weigh the
same and whether or not the C of G is at the same radius. To obtain the best
dynamic balance I had to fix a large piece of steel to the backplate. Washers
weren't heavy enough! Preferably I need to borrow two digital balances capable
of weighing up to 2 KGS or there thereabouts. The roots will probably weigh
about 2 KGS and the tips less than 1 KG. If any one can help with the loan
of a suitable balance for a couple of days, I can fly to your nearest strip
to collect and then return. Any where in England or Wales is OK. Many thanks
in anticipation.
Best wishes,
William

Many thanks. I think it will be a great improvement on my current right
angle drill which needs 11cm.

As Ron Swinden pointed out some years ago, the LA mod is not really about
"LAs". Rather it is about broad shoulders and enabling the occupant to sit
closer to the aircraft centreline, which provides more headroom and removes
the doorframe from your arm. So it's worth doing whether you have,
anticipate having or have not (and never will have) a LA.

Hi William
Hope you are well.
Sorry I can't help with the scales. Did anyone go to Lands End last week?
Carl has asked if there is anything happening this weekend. Any ideas - I'm
free except for Monday.

As would I, if it's not too much trouble. I'm a sign maker, by trade,
and have lots of plexi and poly carb at my disposal. More than willing
to share with anyone in need...

Hi Tony,
Check out photos of the seat widening mod at:
http://ourworld.cs.com/MJKTuck/seatwide.htm
I guess it gave me about 2 inches more hip room per seat which actually gave
me a little more shoulder room as you sit a little more inboard.
