OK, here's a few. First the plug ready to fiberglass the bottom.
I positioned the basic plug in the wing where I wanted it,
surounded it with a single piece of matt board and glued
that to the plug with spray foam insulation.
That cap I got at Arlington for ten bucks. It's $335 in AS+S!
I made the fitting for it.
The last pic shows the final layout. The fuel line is just
sitting there. I need a couple of nut inserts before flairing
and bending it to fit.

They say necessity is the mother of invention.
When I checked the 37 flair tools at a hundred
bucks I just couldn't justify that for two lousy
ends! So I simply made a head to fit over my
standard plumbing one. Seems to work fine.
This combo lathe-mill I agonized over buying
on sale for $1000 ( regular $1800! ) has paid for
itself at least once already! I walk in looking for
3/8" X 23 gauge pins and walk out with this thing.
Damn good thing I'm no longer married!

Here's what I did. First I filled in and contoured the area
with really light and thick balsa then, using water based
contact cement, glued on 1/32 ply for a hard surface.
My thinking was that I was going to be putting weight
on that area every time I got in or out so I wanted the
solidity of bulk but I also wanted the thinness where the
ply overlay the stringers so there wouldn't be a significant
bump in the fabric. Yes I know, there's a certain amount
of anal involved! I just can't help it. :-)

Yes, Charlie Rubeck sold sets of ribs for $300...considering the hours and
materials, he was working for way less than minimum wage! I would advise
anyone who has an opportunity to buy a set of completed ribs (assuming th
ey are well built), should buy 'em poste haste!
Meanwhile, we all miss Charlie and remember him...

Just a useless comment here... but, doesn't your wife get annoyed when
you build your airplane in the kitchen?
Then again, based on the tire marks, if she's okay with you working on
the car in the kitchen, then a little woodworking should be no
problem...
Seriously, though... Is that your workshop? I can see the reflection of
the cabinets in the floor!
A little more luxurious than Clif's "workshop".

Yes Bill, my workshop. I used kitchen cabinets because they are cheap and a
ll ready to go in. The counter tops are smooth and flat. The outer surfaces
of all of these are a breeze to clean.- It was a win-win for me.

I had one of my cars in the shop for two winters, then decided to put it ba
ck out in the garage with the others...It took up usable space and I was le
ery about hitting it with something, so I moved it.

I've visited Mike's workshop at his house last winter guys and you may as
well imagine that you're
actually entering a surgical area of a hospital with one notable exception.
There is way
more clutter in an operating room.
Mike just showed me his torque tube aileron control horn that he TIG welded
up (the airfoil shaped / two-halves job)
and it looked like it came out of a CNC machine---no distortions or warping
anywhere on the edge welds and
perfectly drilled and placed holes. My best control horns still had some
slight distortion and warpage but Mike's
look like a robotic welder welded them.
Mike's also the world's luckiest man as he has the full blessings of his wi
fe on this project and the stunning
1960's GTO he restored from the frame up.

Entirely coincidence...although Jess's birthday is this month. That banner
is there, apparently, from a birthday get-together the airport owner had for
his wife a couple years ago. It just happened to be hanging there the day we
first were shown the barn, which was around my birthday in July. Go figure.

Hehe....I don't know who you've been talking to, Gary. She won't even kill a

However she does go shooting with me, and still has the most powerful
handgun in the relationship, a Ruger Super Redhawk (.44 Mag) passed on from
her father. I have five battle rifles to her zero thus far though, so I win
overall.
But Palin, Oscar? Ooh...there'll be some choice words over that comment. :P

Graham,
There's a slight vacuum created in the cockpit, so while the reading
will be "close" it will be off. If you're ok with "close" then that
should be fine.
I just bought a non-heated strut mount pitot/static port from AS&S for
$20 and change. I still haven't mounted it yet, though.
Cheers,

Or.......If you want to see how fast (or slow) your going you can..... look
down and see how fast things are going past, or, hold your hand out into
the slip stream and judge your speed by the force of the wind. Not sure
why 5 or even 10 mph makes any difference in a Piet. Fly the plane, fly the

Sounds like ya'll have great wives. I know you do Ryan, but I have never met Mrs.
Boothe ( I don't think). I have a great wife too . She likes paper work, gardening,
digging, electrickery and anything else that doesn't include actual
flying, unless it has two engines and two pilots. Maybe I will have to move up
to a beach baron to trick her out. Cheers, Gardiner Mason

Gardiner,
It is likely that you will never meet Mrs. Boothe. Concerning my flying, the
best thing I can say about her is that she doesn't stand in my way. However,
having mis-spent her youth on Harley's, she perked up a little when I bought
the 21" Sportster wheels; only to become disinterested again when she saw
the laminated struts, and the boards that will someday be my prop!
Weren't you about to fly yours?
Gary Boothe
Cool, Ca.

We are lucky Ryan. Theresa will be helping me make sawdust this weekend too.
In fact, I didn't even have to ask... just about 20 minutes ago she said, "I'll
help you rip that plywood on Sunday if you want." She knows that I have a couple
of large pieces that I need to make into not-so-large pieces. Gotta love
it.

OK, here's a few. First the plug ready to fiberglass the bottom.
I positioned the basic plug in the wing where I wanted it,
surounded it with a single piece of matt board and glued
that to the plug with spray foam insulation.
That cap I got at Arlington for ten bucks. It's $335 in AS+S!
I made the fitting for it.
The last pic shows the final layout. The fuel line is just
sitting there. I need a couple of nut inserts before flairing
and bending it to fit.

Thanks Jorge. So the tank is vinyl ester resin. Apparently the only one
that is fuel proof. The guage is a very uniquely designed oil tank one.
The dial and the float assembly have no physical connection whatsoever,
The dial pointer and the floatshaft are magnetic. The hand follows the
float arm magneticaly through the dividing wall.
Oh, I forgot to mention before and didn't take pics but the tank has
four
baffles in it, two fore and aft and two across. They are glassed into
the
bottom but not the top.

Here's what I did. First I filled in and contoured the area
with really light and thick balsa then, using water based
contact cement, glued on 1/32 ply for a hard surface.
My thinking was that I was going to be putting weight
on that area every time I got in or out so I wanted the
solidity of bulk but I also wanted the thinness where the
ply overlay the stringers so there wouldn't be a significant
bump in the fabric. Yes I know, there's a certain amount
of anal involved! I just can't help it. :-)

Outstanding! Thanks guys. Great pictures and ideas. I'll
