I used 1/8" birch plywood for my instrument panels and in the rear cockpit overlayed the instrument cluster with 1/4" mahogany plywood. I attached the instruments to the birch and then the mahogany plywood hides all that. I used small machine screws from behind into, but not thru the 1/4" mahogany bezel. I drilled out little recess holes in the back of the 1/4" overlay and epoxied in small machine screw nuts to accept the screws.....but after 250 hour and temperature extremes the panel dropped in my lap one day while taxiing. I put a few dabs of RTV on the back of the 1/4" ply and popped it back in place. Held it there with masking tape for 24 hours then business as usual. I thought about velcro for attatching the overlay but the two layers of that would have lifted the overlay off the 1/8" birch and I didn't want that look. Let us know if you come up with a better way. I thought about magnets but then that would have given my compass schizophrenia. Bad enough that I suffer from it:) Mike C. ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 10:09:58 AM PST US From: "Oscar Zuniga" Subject: Pietenpol-List: panel overlay --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Oscar Zuniga" Mike (Cuy) writes- >but after 250 hour and temperature extremes the panel dropped in my lap one >day while taxiing. Could have been worse, Mike. You could have been in process of filling your relief cup when that panel bezel let go into your... lap ;o) Flying can be fun, can't it?

Sounds like it would be just perfect for a removeable panel like that. I think it's called 222.

You could easily put the asuza type brakes on. I had planed to use them as is. They are in serviceable used condition, not perfect, but good. With this set up I have some 8:00 x 4:00 newer Good Year tires and tubes, used also but very nice condition with lots of flying time left. These would look perfect on your Pietenpol, and really give it that 1930s look. The first $275.00 + shipping get them. If you want them e-mail me, the first e-mail saying yes I want them, get's them. No pictures at this time, but they are well worth it, in fact if you can't live with them I will refund your money less the shipping cost if returned with in 30 days. zigodan@aol.com Dan Zigo ________________________________ Message 9 _____________________________________ Time: 03:59:53 PM PST US From: "walter evans" Subject: Pietenpol-List: pleeeeeease stop snowing --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "walter evans" More snow today,,,went up to knock snow off the hanger, and thought about hugging my Piet. This winter is far tooooooo long. Don't know what it is. Guess it's because I don't have a project to work on. Last fall with it's DAR and licencing, and test flying, seems like a dream. Haven't flown since Nov of last year. Had one day a few days ago, got up to 45f, seemed like sweater weather. Now it's back to the teens/twenties. Corky,,,please send some sun northward. walt NX140DL (north N.J.) do not archive ________________________________ Message 10 ____________________________________ Time: 04:40:41 PM PST US From: Isablcorky@aol.com Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: pleeeeeease stop snowing --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: Isablcorky@aol.com Walt, It's not a bit better here. Took the trash out a few minutes ago and I remarked to Isabelle that it looked like snow clouds. Those low dark looking puffs like they had one winter when I was soldiering at Cp Atterbury, Ind. That's about 35 miles below Indianoplace. Boy was it cold. Cussed yankees for the next 20 years. We have had some good signs lately, the robins came through and striped the cherry laurels of berries about a month before they were due which says we will probably have an early spring. You can comfortably fly a Piet down here from 60 and above but not for too long. It was about 65 last Sat when I flew and after an hour I landed feeling like a popsicle.

That was kind of what I was figuring. It sure is nice to follow the pioneers. I will let you know what I come up with for fastening the overlay.
