I like the cooling tower. With intake air passing through the radiator and
oil cooler prior to arriving to the carbs, should be no need for additional
carb heat to prent carb ice.
===============
it has been proven that if you heat up realy cold air to just above the
freezing point then cool it with the evaporation of the gas that you will
make carb ice... where you would not if the air was not heated.

Hey,
Thanks Richard....
Because the site is FREE , they limit access to it,
After the Glitter wears away this won't be a problem.
It's just that I've been telling EVERYBODY about it.
Sometimes I can't even get on it to add more description to the photos....The
Last picture in
( Building Log IIII ) wouldn't go to it's page when
I "Clicked" on it...I've got that fixed now.
( That's one of my favorite pages )

Kolbers,
Now that I'm back down to earth from drooling over Marks plane and back to building,
I remembered something I wanted to ask the list. On my trip to view Ken's
Kolbra I noticed that the steel type markings on the fuselage bleed through
the white powder coating. It was a very light yellow and to be honest looked pretty
cool. Sorta aircrafty looking if you will. What happened here? Did the cage
not get properly cleaned prior to the powder coating process? Does this or
has this happened to any others in the painting process?

I'm leaving next Tuesday for about 10 days up on Ottawa on business. Any
Kolbers up there who might want to get together for a burger and a beer at
some point?

You can tell easily if the surface has been prepped right before
powder coating. -Push on the paint with the edge of a screwdriver,
if the paint pops off revealing a shiny surface, that is the mill glaze
that should have been removed first. Powder coat over
inadequately prepared tubing is a waste of money.
It's a tedious job done right. Successful paint shops wash down
with industrial detergent (refigeration coil cleaner is great),
deionized water or rain water, sand cloth or glass bead blast.

Paul and all,
I have been told that the bleed through is visible only with the white
powder coat. Mine also has the yellow lettering visible in the powder coat.
If I had the chance to do it again, I would buy a bare fuselage so I could
weld several additional fittings to it and then epoxy prime it.

Uncle Craig and Tim
It was nice to see your Kolbs in person yesterday afternoon. You sure have
put a lot of work into the FireStar and MK III. I especially liked the Arizona
paint runs. I have never seen paint runs like that.
Keep up the good work and I will keep tabs on your progress via your webpage.
Looks like the FireStar will be ready for the Monument Valley gathering and
I'm sure your MK III will be flying before Big Lar's MK III. (Sorry couldn't
resist)

Guys,
Although I only finished my Mk-3 last year, the kit was bought in 92 with
and the fuselage including the boom tube was powder coated by Powder Craft
back in the early 90s. The whole thing is white and it looks as good as the
day I bought the kit in 97. no bleed through or yellowing at all.
