Thanks Guys,
Last night I shot the TE with the laser. Turns out the warp is right at 1/8" in
the center and the LE of the aileron by its self was bowing the opposite direction
which makes it look worse. When I flipped the wing over and clamped the
aileron tube to the wing its dead on.
Sorry for freaking out. Thanks for the help.

Glad to hear all is well with the wings.
I just checked out AVWEB and in their 3rd Sun and Fun photo gallery I see
that John H and Dick Rahill are doing their thing. Maybe Miss Dixie will be
ready for next years show.
Keep up the good work.

When you riveted your ribs to the main spar did you start at one rivet and
go around the spar or did you go both directions from the first rivet?
Steven,
Yes just like plans call for. One rivet in the center on each rib flange all the
way down. Then one on the opposite side then one above and one below all the
way down. Kinda like a torque sequence.This is one area of the plans that is
very clear and explains about what not doing this will do. I guess that some warp
is inherent. But I agree with Bro Pike, a level table would be better but
harder to work on. Perhaps a sturdy 2"x 6" length wise at the TE so one could
strap the TE down and keep it straight would be a good idea?

If you were to use a 2x6 for that, you'd want to make very sure that it's
absolutely straight and true. From what I've seen in the lumberyards, I
think it'd be very difficult to find such a critter, and even more difficult
to keep it that way. I used the bench, (see my website) and was happy with
it...............others swear by the 'horses. Glad you got it worked out.

I'm using the a 2x4 that was run through a planer several times until it was
perfectly flat, both sides (top edge bottom edge) then I leveled it to the
work deck and clamped it down ( if you don't have a planer give your local
Vo-tech a call )

Yes and no. When I built the wings for the J-6, (traditional wood truss
ribs with spruce board front and rear spars) I used sawhorses. When I built
the MKIII, I used a long table made by using two old interior doors 30"
wide, joined end to end and screwed down atop a long narrow table that was
24" wide x 12' long. I had lag bolts screwed into the bottom end of the
table legs, and could true the table by taking a wrench and screwing the
bolts in or out. I really liked it because building tail feathers or
ailerons, I could lay out the parts full size on the table. Bought a roll
of masking paper, (You will used that when you paint Kolb) and laid out and
taped it down on the table, drew the parts full size. Used screws through
little wood blocks right into the table (interior plywood doors) to hold
the tubing in place. For the next part, rip the paper off and layout fresh.
Stored all the unused tubing in racks under the table, all the other parts
on a plywood shelf along the bottom of the table.
IMHO, the utility lost by not being able to get under a part, as when using
sawhorses, was more than made up for by the utility gained everywhere else.
Especially when a table makes a good place to set the butter tubs that hold
the rivets, the rivet gun, the drill, the pencil, the ruler,.... etc.
And after I finished the project, I sold it for $50 to another builder!
But it really doesn't matter that much, as long as the parts fit is all
that counts.

| Subject: | building a wing on a bench vs sawhorses.. |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: "Don Gherardini" <donghe@one-eleven.net>
Paul, I made the decision to use a bench, for a couple of reasons...
1..I have built other wings before, and I always made a "wing table"
..so...old habit...
2. useing sawhorses would not allow me to have all kinds of tool right close
at hand...a sack or a bowl of rivets...can of clecos..debur...various
marking pens...tape meas..square...huck gun and rivet pullers, ....cup a
coffee and a BFH......you know all the various stuff that a fella likes to
have at arms reach...with a the horse method...I could not figure out how I
could just have all the stuff close enough to me to expidite the building
time.even in a roll around cart. PLus, I like to have the blueprint very
close to my work,,,you know....cause I generally look at a dimension about 6
times on a print before I get the nerve to drill a hole!!!! Having that
print over on the other side of the room would have made me wear out a pair
of shoes just checking it all the time.!
saving even 1 or 2 footsteps per rib, or even an extended arm reach in a
repetitive building pattern can save an awful lot of time, and having to
walk over to the "other spot": where the tools are, or the sack of
rivets....bending down because they are on the floor....all this stuff I
could picture me doing if I used a set of horses kinda made be decide to not
try that method...
next would be the reason inspired by "that troublesome tube"...
That is the length of tubing that have a little bit of a sway in it....if on
a table...it is easy to clamp down on both ends...shim ...pull, or push
against the tabletop to get the precise alignment I demand....suspended out
in mid air....well, I just dont know how to .
I suppose if someone taught me, or I had used the saw horse method
before....I might have considered it...but...I would be hard to convince!

Hi, everyone,
I live in Boulder, Colorado, and am thinking of getting a Firestar II with
the 503. What sort of take-off performance and climb rate should I expect up
here in the summer, with two of us aboard? How about if I were solo?
Please either reply to the forum or to me at
dpaule@frii.com
Many thanks -

Thanks Don/Richard/Gang
Ya know both have their good points and bad points. This is an idea that I'm kicking
around for if and when the time comes that TNK contracts us to build for
them. Sort of a happy medium or best of both worlds.
Here it goes... First a steel legged table with adjustable legs. And when I say
adjustable I mean from 3' 6" to 7' tall like a scaffold if you will. This way
I could raise it for the under side work and lower it for the top side stuff.
Also make it with a tilting top, like a drafting table. This way I could tilt
the wing straight up like Jack's wall method. This would be way to expensive
and complex for a one or two time build but for spitting them out daily a real
handy jig. As for the top, 3/4" Burch plywood with access doors that you could
open and close for access certain parts of the structure. I like my roll around
cart. Mainly because I have all my tools at arms reach at all times and have
a butter tub for tossing the rivet mandrels into. With steel prices going thru
the stratosphere, I figure a years worth of saving the SS mandrels might pay
for the gas for a S&F trip! Which by the way, sure wish I were there instead
of sitting here. Haven't heard from John Williamson yet. He was planning on
stopping here today on his way back. Took today off to mow so I will have this
weekend to play. If he does stop here, he may just leave on foot because we are
thinking about buying his Kolbra. Can ya believe it? Charley is thinking about
selling his RV8 and going Kolb! That says allot for these airplanes when a
guy is thinking about bailing out of a 235 mph 300hp unit for one of these birds.
Well I have rambled enough. Going to go sit by the pool and await John's
arrival...:-)

WORST VIRUS EVER ---CNN ANNOUNCED
PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST !!
A new virus has just been discovered that has been classified by Microsoft as the
most destructive ever This virus was discovered yesterday afternoon by McAfee
and no vaccine has yet ! been developed. This virus simply destroys Sector
Zero from the hard disk, where vital information for its functioning are stored.
This virus acts in the following manner:
It sends itself automatically to all contacts on your list with the title "A Card
for You".
As soon as the supposed virtual card is opened the computer freezes so that the
user has to reboot. When the ctrl+alt+del keys or the reset button are pressed,
the virus destroys Sector Zero, thus permanently destroying the hard disk.
Yesterday in just a few hours this virus caused panic in New York, according to
news broadcast by CNN. This alert was received by an employee of Microsoft itself.
So don't open any mails with subject: "A Virtual Card for You." As soon as you
get the mail, delete it!! Even if you know the sender !!!
Please pass this mail to all of your friends.
Forward this to everyone in your address book. I'm sure most people, like myself,
would rather receive this notice 25 times than not at all.

QUARANTINE_LEVEL=4.0 KILL_LEVEL=5.0
--> Kolb-List message posted by: "Larry Cottrell" <lcottrel@kfalls.net>
Hi,
Trying to find some reasonable lexan. Am checking with a company called
Harbor sales
http://www.harborsales.net/index.cfm
and they list Makrolon Polycarbonate, and it is pretty reasonable. In fact
so reasonable that I am wondering if it is the stuff that I need for a new
windshield. I know that Lexan is a brand name, but the makrolon throws me.
Help!
Larry, Klamath Falls
