    Subject: Re: rudder weight DF
    test ----- Original Message ----- From: Nick Harris To: pietenpol-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, October 29, 2005 6:10 PM Subject: Pietenpol-List: rudder weight DF All, A few weeks ago I posted a message wondering if there is a difference in weights of the same size stick of DF. The consesnsus was if the moisture content was the same then each stick should be about the same. Today I weighed my rudder which is about 97% complete (no covering or metal fittings) and it came out to be 3lbs. Is does anyone think this is to heavy or just about right for DF. I would not even have questioned it but my DAD said he thought it was heavy. He was comparing it to a cub rudder though. I dont think you can compare tubing to wood. I am really getting into the project and think I could finish the whole tail section by the end of Nov. If the weight is way out of line I need to make some changes now before I go onto the next part. What ever the case I don't think I will scrap my parts I have finished (rudder, VS). I will just make up for it somewhere else. Nick Harris

That was "way cool" as some generation a while back used to say. Sorry for the quality of the video, keep in mind this was my first time using the camera (I bought it the day before). It was also my first try at editing video, and I was trying to do other "crew duties" while taking the video, so a lot of it didn't turn out great. Building and dreaming in McPherson.

    Subject: Wing leading-edge tool
    Hello! I'm posting to ask if anyone's built/used a tool to sand/shave a wing leading-edge from the rough. Our Dave's been rasping it from outlines drawn on the ends, using a template made from gusset material to confirm his work. We've got several devoted people putting a lot of creativity into our Piet, and I thought this'd be an opportunity to contribute to the project, and also contribute a little to this list, which has been good to belong to. Thanks! Sincerely, Dave Smith http://www.eaa1279.org/Pietenpol.htm

    David, Did you see the way Michael Cuy did his? He bought stairwell banisters and made two passes on his table saw and they were ready to glue on. His tape shows how he did this.
