That's great Jim, enough about you. Is the shop still standing and is the
Piet Okay?

Just teasing I hope all is Okay at the farm for the family. Being out of
power is no fun especially if you need it for heat.

hahahaha...yeah, the Piet's safety was actually one of my first
thoughts... (don't tell Julia)...
I ran a spare propane line into the house last year when the power was
out for a week so heat is not a problem. I hope next year to get
started on my plans for alternate/off grid power resources.
Since I FINALLY finished up the tailwheel assembly, everything is
sitting up off the ground nice and pretty. So I'm sure all's well.
Biggest thing is having the power on when I get back home. I spend a
lot of time during the week working on different parts of the project in
my mind so when I get home I'm ready to get to work...and every time I
think of what I'll work on this weekend I have to add "if the
electricity is back on...". Actually, I can do some sanding...
I love this homebuilding process!

Jim,
I was worried, but glad to see you covered the priorities in proper order,
Piets safe and secure, oh ya and the family too!
I know the feeling, I got tons of mental build hours in mine too, I think
that's part of the process. With my unused vacation for the year Friday is my
last officinal work day for the year. That means I got almost 2 weeks to work
on the Piet. I sure hope that time doesn't get absorbed with the continuation
of the summer, the wife projects and requests. I am hoping for 2 weeks of
build time, I sure hope I have enough wood, glue and supplies put aside so I
don't have to go shopping for anything. Well maybe a drill press would be a
nice addition to the shop.
All in all I am looking forward to the build and making saw dust again!
Mental building is fun but sure doesn't compare to making noise, sawdust and
airplanes.
John

I sure wised I knew in the software biz that could give me some advice, I
have a bunch of old out dated equipment, vid camera and capture device (Dazzle
80) with my XP computer software, it just doesn't connect to well so that I
can keep the camera running during the build. Then I can prove my build hours
and have the vid too that's that anyone would be interested in viewing it.
Unfortunately all my Broadhead 07 video is on that format tape, not the full
size vhs but the smaller tapes which I had intended on editing but have yet
to be able to upload onto to my computer and put it all together as part of
the Piet experience.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to cobble together a system that would
work using old outdated equipment. I would appreciate some ideas on the build
cam concept.
I sure wish I knew a Piet builder that was a software guy from Oklahoma that
could make a suggestion on how to do it, or anyone else for that matter
willing to provide advise and support to such a project.
Thanks
John

John,
Based on what you wrote it sounds like you want to keep the camera running during
the build to document it. I would think that, regardless of whether you use
physical tape or digital, that is going to generate far too much video for you
to want to deal with. As far as using that to document the build: no examiner
is going to want to sit through thousands of hours of video. I would think that
if you wanted to use video to document it that you should consider the video
camera as a digicam with benefits. Finish a piece, then film it while you explain
what you did. A few minutes footage of your progress, and explanation of
what you did for a given shot. I would still say you should take pictures and
log your progress, in case something happens to your video.
If your computer is XP, and not too old, you should be able to process video. I
looked up the Dazzle, and unfortunately did not see much good about it. It may
be a matter of buying a decent video capture card to install into your computer,
so you can capture video at a usable quality from whatever source you choose.
Shoot me an email if you want, and I will do my best to walk you through the computer
side of this. Hope that helps,
Ryan

Subject: | What should a fiberglass cowling weigh? |
Well, after 3 months of on again, off again work I've successfully
removed my fiberglass cowling from the male plug mold that I made. I
laminated it up from 4 layers of fiberglass cloth using polyester resin,
as described in the Tony Bingelis books, under the chapter "How to make
a Fiberglass cowling, if you must". Now I know what ole Tony was
talking about. It actually looks pretty nice and has some nice compound
curves that would be impossible (for me) to duplicate in aluminum. What
concerns me is it weighs 10 pounds. I have a J-3 aluminum cowl on my
Baby Ace, and it only weighs about 2 pounds. The cub cowl is about 4
inches too short to fit my Piet, so that wasn't an option. I'll try to
post a few pictures in the next few days, but what do you guys think
about the weight?

Hi,
Thought I would chime in with something that I bought that made my life
easy. I bought this thing called the Plextor Convert X about 5 years ago.
You connect your analog video (VHS) into one set of connectors and get
digital output for your computer. Not sure what type of tapes you have. I
have a Canon video cam that uses small HD tapes. I can usually turn one of
those tapes into video files in a couple hours. If you want, if you copy
the tapes and they are are HD or VHS I can convert them to files and CDs or
DVDs for you. ...for the sake of all the Brodhead enthusiasts. I bought
the machine to make CDs of some video I had and really wished I used it
more. It's a pretty handy thing for me to be hoarding. It's similar to the
Dazzle thing but better.
