Was it bad epoxy or was it the type used. There are different types and
some do not take exposure to fuel very well.

Kolbers, not much accomplished today but a couple ideas. 1. for the gap
seal where the (old kolb) manual says to put a piece of 1/2 " alum tube
between the two little 1/4" stubs in the middle-- I found at a local
hardware
store a perfect piece of extruded U-channel with a 1/4" groove that snaps
right in there. I'll glue right to that. The opposing side will be
sheet metal
as that's where my horizontal geo radiator resides.
2. At the bottom rear of the cage where it meets the boom tube, instead
of covering with fabric from the bottom horizontal rung to the boom, I
took a left-over rib-to-spar stamping, cut it in half, curved the outer
flanges
to fit the vertical frame and fit it to the opening with the
semi-circular flange
facing forward. Zinc chromated it and now have to invent a simple
device to keep it from going through the fan. -BB archive if you must

It was the type used, and in my subjective opinion, it was "bad."
Full disclosure: so no one else makes my mistake, for years when I needed a
small amount of epoxy, the local hobby shop carried "Hobbypoxy" which
worked great in all applications. Then that company got out of the hobby
business, and the hobby shop now carries a different brand, all varieties
of which are quick setting. Don't know the name and can't look it up since
I threw it out in disgust, but it is not worthy of a Kolb.

How about a good dose of "Goop?" That stuff sticks anything. And I plan on
doing the same thing to mine and will be "Gooping" it in place. If you want
to wait and see how it works for me, be patient, I am still focused on
teething problems with the new 582. (Grrr, grumble, mutter)

Richard,
Where exactly are you using this - I sensed it something to do with fuel
tank but not sure what your trying to accomplish. In the mean time I'll do
some search on the type you should be using. Does this involve fiber glass
such as fuel tanks. A few years back we used T88 to adhere a flange for a
threaded fuel valve to the bottom of a fiber glass fuel tank. It worked
fine and help up without any problems. If you use T88, don't use old
stuff, it will not cure well. Today with the reformulated gas, not sure
how it would hold up. Guess you'll have to test it for us.

Thanks for the kind words, Hugh. Pore ol' Lar is back from M.V., as of
10:15 PM tonight, after more than 14 hrs on the road. Many stories to tell,
and adventures to relate......................but a night's sleep comes 1st.
I can say - quickly - that I have seldom enjoyed myself more than during
these last 5 days, and did they ever go fast. What a great group of people,
and what a great place for a vacation. Goulding's is an extremely well set
up facility - a major operation - with incredible scenery right on property.
I believe there were 15 people, from 7 states, and they brought 9
airplanes - 1 FireFly; 1 Prospector; ( I'll let Tom K. tell you about that
one), 1 Kolbra; 1 Cessna 175 SkyLark; and 5 Mk III's. Nope, Vamoose wasn't
1 of them. There were 217 email messages waiting for me at home,
of which all but 45 were spam. What a burn. Wore Out
Lar. Do not Archive.
