Someone was talking recently about scarfing...I just ran across this picture from
my scarfing jig. I fastened a router to the plexiglass. Hopefully the picture
clear enough that no explanation is needed. If not, let me know offline.
The picture was taken while the clamps were holding it together for the adhesive
to set....yes, I removed them before using the jig. :-)
Really worked well, made good scarfs and was quick and easy to use....

Dear friends,
As much as we tend to joke with each other and have fun poking fun back and
forth I just want to tell you in all seriousness that Jim Markle is of fine
character and personally my ribbing towards him comes from the utmost of respect
for the man and is in no way meant to degrade or lower the wonderful
efforts that Jim has made towards having a flying example of a Pietenpol Air Camper
soon someday on the grounds at Brodhead, Wisconsin. I just want you to
all
know that Jim is a fun-loving guy and the digs that I and some others have posted
toward him in recent posts are all in fun and most importantly out of our mutual
respect for Jim and when Jim's wheels touch the grass upon landing at Brodhead
we will collectivity give him a huge round of applause, a big (group hug---Jess
O/Ryan ---you
are in charge:) and be thankful for another dream come true-- my apologies if
I shed any negative light on Jim's character and long live NEW Piets at Brodhead
!
Mike C.

Mike's clamp! Ha! That's hilarious! Where did THAT come from? What a funny
bit! :-)
But guys, please, I don't mean to sound all cranky here (I have nothing but respect
for the folks on this list!) but that routine has run it's course....let's
move on.
Nothing personal Jack.

I consider Jim a great friend, confidont and builder. If I didn't think as highly
of him and others I would not bother. I am however proud to call him my friend
and thankful that he is. A gentleman and a friend. Obviously myself included
or perhaps only in perpertrating such a prolonged and undeserved hoax I join
with mike in an apology long in coming.

I'm sure that your scarfing jig worked well but looked a bit over
engineered for me. All I needed to do was lay the edge flush on a piece of steel,
put a pencil mark 10 to one from the edge (1/8 x 10 or 1.1/4) ,and hit it
with a hand held belt sander. It takes very little skill to make a nice
scarf out to the pencil mark. A worn out fine belt keeps things from going to
fast.

| Subject: | Pietenpol friend Jim Markle- just for a minute |
I have only met Jim once and we only spent about 30-45
minutes together over a beer. He paid for the round.
We talked about Pietenpols and that was all that
mattered.
I like to tell people that you can judge how sincere
they are about being your friend if you envision the
scenario where you have a flat tire and are pulled
off the busy highway at night, in the rain, in slow
traffic. People are in their cars, they can clearly
see that it's you pulled over with a flat in the rain,
and you can't see past their wipers or the rain on
their windshields, so you don't know who is who if
they duck their heads and keep pushing on towards home.
I would pull over and give Jim a hand and I'll bet
most of you would, too. What about his banker, or
his accountant, or his barber, neighbor, or even
pastor? I've seen it happen in real life. A high
school coach, pulled over with a flat at night, was
swamped by dozens of his former students (all of
them now adults) as they recognized him in trouble
and stopped to help. He didn't even have to get his
hands dirty. I don't think Jim would have to, either.
He's a Pietenpol kind of guy.

Been lurking in the shadows for a few years watching all the posts. Working
Jenny style landing gear.
What size turnbuckles did you guys use? I can't make out what the drawing on
page 14 of the manual says.
Thanks.
