Dear Listers, There are just a couple days left for this year's List Fund Raiser. Over all, participation has been good, but things have been pretty slow this week for some reason. If you've been putting off making your Contribution until the last minute, this is it! The last minute, that is... :-) Please remember that there isn't any sort of commercial advertising on the Lists and the *only* means of keeping these Lists running is through your Contributions during this Fund Raiser. Please make a Contribution today! http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you!

Blueberries grow wild on our land and unless that hog is a sow rather than a boar, we better make some sausage with it. We live right on the edge of the Okefenokee Swamp. This past spring the "Monster" fire came within a quarter mile of our house. We were evacuated three times. The first time evacuated our house was broken into and robbed. But thank the Lord we and our house and our goats and chickens made it safely through. mdnanwelch7(at)hotmail.co wrote: > Cristal, > > I'd vote for a runway, and celebrate it over a nice ham dinner.

Kolb-List message posted by: "Aaron Gustafson" Jim Swan (on this list) has the Firestar trailer that I built. He may be able to post some pictures of the tail support in it. I think it worked very well and easy if I might blow my horn. Aaron G. Hello everyone, Yes Aaron is correct his design of boom support work's very well. If anyone would like pictures let me know, I will go out in take some and post. Jim Swan do not archive **************************************Check out AOL's list of 2007's hottest products.

Its a really great job who ever made it .....looks production and fits perfectly and snugly right near the CG and the carb is all downhill from the tank's pickup with a 24" run of fuel line via a low point fuel filter/water trap and the pump....can't imagine a better arrangement is even possible. Just got a fuel sender unit to install and wire to my E1 digital engine monitor since I can't see the fuel level behind my seat. It will show up on my instrument where the oil Pressure sensor would normally be and have a settable low fuel alarm. Don't you just love digital instruments! -------- Ray Riverside County, CA Do Not Archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=149417#149417 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 12:48:14 PM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Re: Runway or wild boars...hmm From: "jb92563" I'd say make the runway, eat the Boar and target practice with trespassers that are not on fire during an evacuation. Glad to hear you made out well. I think you could make good bounty/reward money during an evacuation, by returning on the sly after you are escorted out with a Mosin-Nagant 91/30 with a good scope. There is nothing more disgusting than having looters rob evacuated homes....except maybe watching a croc eat a looter in the swamp [Wink] -------- Ray Riverside County, CA Do Not Archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=149421#149421 ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 12:58:19 PM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Re: fix a small hole From: "jb92563" The good thing about the polyfiber/stits process is that if you use the right components they will all chemically bond to each other right from the poly tak to the poly-tone....thats why you can use the poly brush to stick patches down right to some MEK cleaned poly-tone and it will stick well. I'd stay away from non-polyfiber products just to avoid having to do things twice when the non compatible product eventually lets go. -------- Ray Riverside County, CA Do Not Archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=149423#149423 ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 03:43:20 PM PST US From: Dana Hague Subject: Re: Kolb-List: Re: Runway or wild boars...hmm At 03:47 PM 11/29/2007, jb92563 wrote: >I think you could make good bounty/reward money during an evacuation, by >returning on the sly after you are escorted out with a Mosin-Nagant 91/30 >with a good scope.

From: "JetPilot" Do you guys lubricate the piano hinges on the control surfaces of your Kolbs ? I have read reports of these wearing on the elevator and rudder over time. If so what type of oil do you use on them ? Mike -------- "NO FEAR" - If you have no fear you did not go as fast as you could have !!!

From: "jb92563" A dry lube like graphite spray would be good. Wet sticky lubes get dirt and grit mixed in them and cause faster erosion of the metal parts....definitely not a good thing. -------- Ray Riverside County, CA Do Not Archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=149517#149517 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message kolb-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Kolb-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/kolb-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/kolb-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
