How I can view photos posted on this site? When I click on the links I've been
able to find, the info only describes how to submit photos.
Thanks, and Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Douwe's construction photos NX799DB
Things are really happening on my project. Reserved NX799DB. Getting hard to
find a good number!
Just posted some photos of some of the more interesting parts.
pictures@matronics.com
NX799DB is going to be Ford powered and very "thirties". Using wooden cabanes
and lift struts, big "clincher" tires and a skid. Will be looking for some
property I can use as a grass strip south of Cincinatti so nobody can watch me
learn to land this thing!!
Between now and Brodhead I'm getting married and moving, think I can make it?
First time i've posted photos so I hope I did it right.

This is probably going to be the first Thanksgiving that I won't doze off
early tonight, filled with turkey dinner, because when we get home from
sister-in-law's house later tonight, I will be heading for the basement to begin
joining the two fuselage side frames into a real fuselage. Won't be long and I'll
be
able to sit in 'er and make engine noises!
(Yes, I'll be able to get the fuse out of the basement -- there's a nice big
door straight outside! The wings will have to be assembled in the garage
whenever spring arrives here in the "Great Northern.")
And in the spirit of the day, many thanks to Matt Dralle for this site and
many thanks to all who have shared their tips, advice and wisdom...

I've heard this more than once...galvanized is much better, they start to rust
letting you know they are needing replacment. not as brittle..and they break one
strand at a time

--> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Jeff Hill" Well I'll try this again. This
is for you tech guys. Is there a long term fatigue problem with stainless cables?
I know of a flybaby that crashed when a flying wire - stainless steel -
broke due to fatigue after a few years. So much for inspections and pre-flt checks.
Is it better to use galvanized for cables exposed to the slipstream?

Jeff,
I used galvanized cables throughout. Stainless, I believe, is reserved for
straight cable applications, not around pulleys.

My understanding was that you use stainless only when
necessitated by environment. Like seaplanes in salt
water. I take this to mean, as Del stated, that galvanized
has superior material properties and that it is easier to
see problems before they become life threatening. The
field I will be flying out of is 100 yards off the Pacific
ocean. None of the planes here ( Tiger Moth through
Harvard to Lancair and RV's) have stainless wire in
them. Ditto for the nearest airport, 1/2 mile off the
ocean.
Also don't forget that all your bolts and brackets etc.
are in the same environment.

Try this and scroll down as the photo links don't appear until
you do so. This page lists all the photos posted from
Oct 1999 ( That was in the last century!). Douwe's pics
haven't appeared so far though.

Remember, when you sit down to that turkey, that you are, or
plan to be, flying a Pietenpol. :-) :-) :-)
