| Subject: | OFF-List: how to deal with drilled holes. |
When inhibiting tube frames we used double boiled linseed oil. A small hole
was drilled at a corner and a quantity of oil was injected using a syringe.
The frame was rotated in all directions over a period of days then the
excess oil was drained out. A stainless steel self tapping screw was
inserted to seal the frame. The screw was an indicator that the frame had
been inhibited.

Dave,
I would suggest using a linseed oil or tube seal then use a
Monel or Stainless rivet with some hysol epoxy to seal the holes.

The three holes in the brace behind the pilots head, and another three on
the other side were left when an old advisory changed the fuel system
relocating the fuel taps slightly. These have been left as is for a couple
hundred hours of flight but I am hot sure that leaving them open is the best
idea. I have the idea that sealing or filling them is required/desirable.
How or what is the best way to seal these up? Or should I ignore them?

Grandpa's Message to Granddaughter
John G. Is 63 years old and owns a small business. He's a life-long
Republican and sees his dream of retiring next year has all but
evaporated. With the stock market crashing and new taxes coming his way,
John assumes now that he will work to his dying day.
John has a granddaughter. Ashley is a recent college grad. She
drives a flashy hybrid car, wears all the latest fashions, and loves to
go out to nightclubs and restaurants. Ashley campaigned hard for Barack
Obama. After the election she made sure her grandfather (and all other
Republican family members) received a big I told-you-so earful on how
the world is going to be a much better place now that her party is
taking over.
Having lost both roommates, Ashley recently ran short of cash and
cannot pay the rent (again) on her 3 bedroom townhouse... Like she has
done many times in the past, she e-mailed her grandfather asking for
some financial help.
Here is his reply:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
---
Sweetheart, I received your request for assistance.
Ashley, you know I love you dearly and I 'm sympathetic to your
financial plight. Unfortunately, times have changed. With the election
of President Obama, your grandmother and I have had to set forth a bold
new economic plan of our own..."The Ashley Economic Empowerment Plan."
Let me explain.
Your grandmother and I are life-long, wage-earning tax payers. We
have lived a comfortable life, as you know, but we have never had the
fancier things like European vacations, luxury cars, etc.. We have
worked hard and were looking forward to retiring soon. But the plan has
changed. Your president is raising our personal and business taxes
significantly. He says it is so he can give our hard earned money to
other people. Do you know what this means, Ashley? It means less for us,
and we must cut back on many business and personal expenses.
You know the wonderful receptionist who worked in my office for more
than 23 years? The one who always gave you candy when you came over to
visit? I had to let her go last week. I can't afford to pay her salary
and all of the government mandated taxes that go with having employees.
Your grandmother will now work 4 days a week to answer phones, take
orders and handle the books. We will be closed on Fridays and will lose
even more income to the Wal-Mart.
I'm also very sorry to report that your cousin Frank will no longer
be working summers in the warehouse. I called him at school this
morning. He already knows about it and he's upset because he will have
to give up skydiving and his yearly trip to Greenland to survey the
polar bears.
That's just the business side of things. Some personal economic
effects of Obama's new taxation policies include none other than you You
know very well that over the years your grandmother and I have given you
thousands of dollars in cash, tuition assistance, food, housing,
clothing, gifts, etc., etc. But by your vote, you have chosen to help
others -- not at your expense -- but at our expense.
If you need money now sweetheart, I recommend you call 202-456-1111.
That is the direct phone number for the White House... You can also
contact the White House here: http://www.whitehouse.gov/CONTACT/ .
You yourself told me how foolish it is to vote Republican. You said
Mr Obama is going to be the People's President, and is going to help
every American live a better life. Based on everything you've told me,
along with all the promises we heard during the campaign, I'm sure Mr.
Obama will be happy to transfer some stimulus money into your bank
account. Have him call me for the account number which I memorized years
ago.
Perhaps you can now understand what I've been saying all my life:
those who vote for a president should consider the impact on the nation
as a whole, and not be just concerned with what they can get for
themselves. What Obama supporters don't seem to realize is all of the
money he is redistributing to illegal aliens and non-taxpaying Americans
(the so-called "less fortunate") comes from tax-paying families.
Remember how you told me, "Only the richest of the rich will be
affected"? Well guess what, honey? Because we own a business, your
grandmother and I are now considered to be the richest of the rich. On
paper, it might look that way, but in the real world, we are far from
it.
As you said while campaigning for Obama, some people will have to
carry more of the burden so all of America can prosper... You understand
what that means, right? It means that raising taxes on productive people
results in them having less money; less money for everything, including
granddaughters.
I'm sorry, Ashley, but the well has run dry.. The free lunches are
over.. I have no money to give you now. So, congratulations on your
choice for "change." For future reference, I encourage you to try and
add up the total value of the gifts and cash you have received from us,
just since you went off to college, and compare it to what you expect to
get from Mr. Obama over the next 4 (or 8) years. I have not kept track
of it, Ashley. It has all truly been the gift of our hearts.
Remember, we love you dearly.....but from now on you'll need to call
the number mentioned above. Your "Savior" has the money we would have
given to you. Just try and get it from him.
Good luck, sweetheart.
Love, Grandpa

| Subject: | Painting Question |
Tomorrow or Friday latest, I plan on painting the trim colors on my
fuselage. It has been ten years since I did the deed and want to ask for
advice from those that have painted more recently and can remember. I am
using Aerothane in a home made paint booth.
1. Did you rotate the fuselage and only paint horizontal surfaces?
2 when did you pull the masking tape?
Thanks,
Lowell

Glenn, I guess you have your own reasons for posting partisan political
foolishness to this list but I wish you would refrain. It's irelevent to
what this list is about. I'm sure there are lists of other republicans
upset at losing power you can lament with somewhere on the internet.
Thanks.

I have only done this two times and both were by mistake. I have been on
the kitfox
list for around five or six years and I know what to post
and what not to post. I very seldom post anything. So Dave G. don't you
worry this will not happen again.
