It was GREAT to catch up with people like Jim Markle and others at Brodhead, Wisconsin this past week. 20 Pietenpols were on the ground last Sunday at Oshkosh and it seems like EAA gave us some good press. Jack Phillips and I waited out the mostly rainy day here in Oshkosh and will depart for points east Friday morning as the weather looks favorable. A big thank you to Doc Mosher, Greg Cardinal, and the guys at the EAA Chapter in Brodhead , Wisconsin for making that event and the Oshkosh showing a nice experience. We had a great display of Pietenpols parked by the brown arch Sunday afternoon. Many guys had to leave by Tuesday morning but we made our mark. All the best, Mike C., Ohio ________________________________ Message 34 ____________________________________ Time: 09:04:33 PM PST US From: "Mike Whaley" Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Hinges I don't know about B'head this year but a couple of years ago I bought a set of 9 CNC machined aluminum Pietenpol tail hinges (ready to bolt on and including the center pins) for $40 total from P.F. Beck who (I think) is based out of North Carolina someplace. A recent post here listed his cellphone as 803-259-6381. IIRC he and a buddy have access to CNC equipment and aren't afraid to use it! Their hinges REALLY impressed me as high quality at an absurdly low price. I showed them to my CNC machinist co-workers at my then-employer (Steen Aero Lab) and they all guessed the hinges must have cost between $60 and $90 EACH... they all dang near blew hot coffee out their noses when I told them what I actually bought them for. VERY high quality stuff. Vi Kapler sells some cast hinges, I believe, I'm not really familiar with them but I've been told that they take some finishing work before use (could be wrong on that). I've heard very good things about both guys and their products so you probably won't go too far wrong either way. Hope this helps. -Mike Missin' Oshkosh, but at least I can watch/listen to it live online!
