(Charlie England) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 06:24:28 AM PST US From: Richard Girard Subject: Re: Kolb-List: Reregistering my slingshot I got great help from Chistina at the FAA registry office when I found that I had mistaken the re-registration date and allowed my aircraft to become de-registered. Christina told me to fill out a form 8050-1 for each aircraft, send them in with the $5 fee for each aircraft, and wait for them to percolate to the top of the pile (FIFO). Three weeks later all the new registrations arrived in my mailbox. Their toll free number is (866) 762-9434. Considering the magnitude of *MY* screw-up I can't tell you how worried I was before I talked to her. I really thought I had turned my aircraft into very expensive lawn ornaments. Christina put me at ease and gave me the information I needed in less than two minutes. My experience and two cents.

Anyone have any experience with the (very) inexpensive compound swage tools listed on this page? http://www.aircraft-tool.com/shop/search.aspx?qid=5257&PageNo=2 (If the link doesn't work, just go to the ATS page & search for 'swager'.) Part numbers JPS14 & JPS24. I need to make up new flying wires for the Twinstar I'm restoring. I have no problem using less expensive tools when appropriate, but the order of magnitude difference in price does make one wonder.

I used their P/N 3 cable swager. Got mine from Aircraft Spruce, under $40. Worked great, especially in tight places.

Good idea to grease up the bolts and washers to reduce as much drag on them as possible. I've never had a problem using the el cheapo. They used to come as part of the parts kits from Kolb Acft. john h mkIII Titus, AL -----Original Message----- From: owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Charlie England Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2017 7:09 PM Subject: Kolb-List: low priced swage squeezer: quality?

From: Charlie England Thanks for the replies. I've got access to the 'screw down' version, but I'm looking at the 'squeezer' type (faster & easier to use in place, if required). These: http://www.aircraft-tool.com/shop/detail.aspx?PRODUCT_ID=JPS14 http://www.aircraft-tool.com/shop/detail.aspx?PRODUCT_ID=JPS24 No joy on anyone using either of those?
