Hello everybody.
When I have scarfed thin plywood I make a stack of all the pieces together
setting each one back the widith the scarf. I then plan or sand them them a
ll at once. This pretty much ensures the angles will all match when you fl
ip a piece over and glue them together.

Guys,
I did not scarf any plywood. When I nailed/glued the 1/16 ply to the wing, I
only lapped one half of the rib width. Then the next piece lapped the other
half of the rib width. Worked like a charm. Just like when you put up a piece
of drywall on a stud wall, bearing only half of the 2 x 4.

Thats exactly what I did. Scarfing isn't necessary for the leading edge plywood.
Since Bernard originally used cardboard from quaker oats oatmeal tubing, scarfing
would have been a little difficult.

I have not been following this thread so someone has probably already posted
this, but take a look at http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/kspars.html for a
good way to do the scarfs. I did an almost identical setup with a piece of
pine shelf board and my Bosch laminate trimmer and it worked great. I only
did 1/8" plywood, but I have no doubt that 1/16" would work just a good.
The entire setup probably took me 45 minutes to make and I can set it back
up again when I need it in 10 minutes.
It worked best for me with the 1/8" ply if I did the cut in two steps (1/4"
pieces clamped against the board the router is on then remove them, don't
adjust the height of the router). Probably would be just fine to run full
depth on one cut on 1/16".

Thanks for all the replies.
I had researched it a bit, and heard of different ways, it just seemed
mighty thin to work with.
My okoume plywood came from Boulter a few minutes ago. Bought two 4x8 sheets
(cut in to 1x8 strips)so if it works out well I can redo my top wing with it
instead of the .016 aluminum that is wanting to pop off. Or if doesn't go
well I have enough to get it done even with some miss-steps.
Presume you varnish or clear coat, the part of the plywood that will be on
the inside of the wing ... before softening the outside with water to get it
to bend.. then once it is the right shape and dry, you remove the formed
piece and do the glue/T-88 and then once that sets you varnish/epoxy/clear
coat the outside part of the plywood?

Who created the video and did they take other people's photos without
permission? Anyone know an email or phone for Grant - or know what the
copyright issues were/are? Doesn't seem like a very complex thing. If Grant
created the video without using other people's material (or using with
permission) he can give the permission to copy. If not, I certainly won't
touch it.
I'm just saying that technically I can do it without trouble and making some
extra DVD's for Grant to sell (if he can legally) only makes sense.
Thanks for the heads up Jim

This talk about Grant MacLaren's video reminded me that yesterday when I
got home from work, I had a nice surprise waiting for me. It was my copy
of the Pietenpol documentary "Finding Flight". The documentary itself is
only eleven minutes long, but there are extras as well, including a
segment on the Brodhead gathering, a visit to the Fillmore County
Museum, and an extended interview with Donald Pietenpol, as well as
footage of a bunch of Pietenpols (and a few other vintage planes) taking
off, taxying and landing, and the back of my head appears in a couple of
scenes, too. This is a professional job, so it's really well done. The
cinematography is really nice, and there's nice music too. A nice way to
spend an hour.
And there are no copyright issues here, just send them your $15 plus
shipping&handling and in just a few days you get a nice new DVD that you
can watch as many times as you want. Just don't try to make copies...
because as Chuck Gantzer says at the beginning of his Piet DVD, "it's
also against.....the.......law".

Until Grant has authorized Kirk (or someone) to make copies, and has offered
them for sale, I don't think there's any point in having a "list".
Unless the purpose of the list is to gauge whether there's enough interest
out there to make the effort worthwhile.
And if that's the case, then add me to the list, too.

Not trying to be a jerk here. I heard a rumor. Let me say it again, rumor,
that Grant operated a newsletter, collected people's subscription money in
advance, then abruptly stopped the newsletter and kept all the money. Can
anybody simply say, yes, that happened or, no, it didn't?
That will help me decide if I want to buy anything from him for quite a few
reasons.
This and his disappearance from the Pietenpol scene happened before I
discovered the project and all the other good people that go along with the
Pietenpol experience.
Sorry if I am being a dark cloud on a relatively positive topic.

plywood?
Guys,
I did not scarf any plywood. When I nailed/glued the 1/16 ply to the
wing, I only lapped one half of the rib width. Then the next piece
lapped the other half of the rib width. Worked like a charm. Just like
when you put up a piece of drywall on a stud wall, bearing only half of
the 2 x 4.

Glenn (and others),
Unfortunately, somehow some rumors got started about Grant. Grant is a great guy
to those that got to know him through the Buckeye Pietenpol Association. He
took over the well established BPA newsletter from Frank Pavliga Sr. He said
he would do it for 10 years. That's just what he did. I kept myself paid up
for the newsletter and I think there may have been one newsletter at the end
that didn't get printed up for what I paid for. Big deal. He wrote a fantastic
newsletter for 10 years and put loads and loads of time and research into
the Pietenpol stuff. I'm sure few of us would have put the time and effort into
it like he did for the small amount of money taken in through the newsletter
subscriptions. He still visits the Brodhead Fly-in every other year or so.
I think he just kind of decided it was time to pursue other interests. As for
the copyright on the newsletter and other things, the guy put 10 years of hard
work into all this stuff and did a terrific job on them so I can fully understand
his wanting to protect his work. Unfortunately a few people must have
gotten upset by paying their few dollars at the end of his run and didn't get
their newsletter. They spoke up without realizing his huge commitment over the
previous 10 years. Among many other things he was adamant about the Pietenpol
family getting credit for what a great design Mr. Pietenpol created. I just
wanted to clarify some of this stuff before the mud starts flying because there
really isn't any to throw.
I'm stepping off the soap box now!

Thanks Don. Like I said, it was a rumor, and since I don't know anything
about him other than the stuff in the rumor, I was just interested in
finding out if he is a scam artist. Sounds like the story was blown out of
proportion. Didn't mean to rile anyone up. Yikes. No mud, I swear!

Thanks for all the comments,
Thought of just butting them together, but it sounds like it might be interesting
to see if I can get them scarfed somehow.
Read that system3's clear coat can be used with T-88 without any problem, so was
thinking that if the okoume is flexible enough to conform to the leading edge
shape, it would work to clear coat it first then put the plywood on, then touch
up a bit, that way the inside would get coated. Seems like that would be easiest
way to get a good result. With the clear coat the idea is you don't have
to leave the joint surfaces bare until you use the T-88, so it makes it easier,
and if some time passed it would all be sealed the same. (Probably need to
scuff it up before gluing.. hoping it all goes together pretty quick.)
