| Subject: | Re: Work table thoughts, and rib jig done! |
I made one 4X14 ft table out of metal stud material.
I chose that because it's dead straight.
Whatever you choose, screw 1/2" bolts into the bottom
of each leg for leveling.

| Subject: | long/short fuselage and painting reg numbers |
Hey there,
I bought my plane as a started project and the fuse was pretty much
built. Never really cked if it's the long or short fuse. What is the
length of each, and is it measured from firewall to tailpost?
Finally up to the color coats in the doping process, thank God the color
coats cover better than the silver or I'd be going through ten gallons.
It really looks nice and it feels great to see the wings and tail parts
in the final color. My question is this. I want to paint my numbers
large on the wings. I'm going to use rounded numbers as they were more
common in the early thirties until CAA mandated the squared style. What
would be a good way to mask a rounded shape like this, especially on a
wing which isn't flat between the ribs? what did you guys do?

| Subject: | vertical fin offset |
I made the front tabs that attach the vertical fin with longer tabs on the
bottom, with two sets of holes, which allow me to easily shift the fin from
a =BE" offset to no offset. I have kept it at =BE" and it works fine. Lo
ng fuselage, 65 Continental.

I had vinyl stencils made by AvGrafix (who also made the vinyl graphics
for my logo and spear on the fuselage). They worked great!

| Subject: | Re: vertical fin offset |
Now that I am clamping and drilling, I am finding that even if I make
extra holes for offsetting the fin, the rear fitting will not allow the
fin to move without really stressing the rear spar, so I am now thinking
that I will just make it straight and live with it.

One thing that makes me wonder...they don't have any links to any builders using
their engines or products. the only links to Corvair fliers that they have
on their web page, takes you to people who are using Flycorvair.com engines from
William Wynne. They bash him, then use examples of people using his stuff to
show how good the Corvair is? Now, that's just bad.

Nothing wrong with a corvair. I think it's as dependable as any 60 year old continental
or 80 year old ford. Just as any engine you rebuild to put on an airplane
you have to start with a good core and go from there.
Just my feelings on the subject,
