Hey Guys,
I hope everyone going to Brodhead and Oshkosh has a great time! I hope to
make it next year.
I have started my project and wanted to relate my experiences to those
getting ready to start. I have completed six ribs and have seven, eight & 9
under construction.
1) I ordered my spruce from Wicks and I very pleased with their service
and quality of wood. I ordered cap strips at 60 inches and had them cut down
a 4 by 4 sheet of plywood to 4 by 2. I ordered enough wood to build about 19
ribs (it works out to 3.167 sixty-inch cap strips per rib). Shipping cost
was $27.37 plus $4.50 to crate the plywood. The math comes in about $11.15
per rib including shipping charges. That does not include T-88, which I
picked up at my local Woodcraft store. How do these numbers match up? Let us
know.
2) Homebuilder Hints on the EAA website have been a great help.
Invisible Glove protective hand coating is great stuff. I ordered mine from
Amazon - free shipping on orders over $25. I also used the EAA
recommendation for a bending jig, except I just cut mine out of 2x4 and it
works great. I am not steaming my wood, just soaking it in a water pipe
overnight and putting it in the bending jig. I am stapling my gussets. For
those of you who have an AC Moore craft store close by or you can order
online, they have 50% off coupons on their website. I was able to get a good
stapler for under $10 with the coupon. I also plan to go back and get more
staples at 50% off.
I have attached a couple of pictures of my shop and first rib.

you will find that process to be very beneficial, as you probably already know
from your obvious organizational skills.
Like Jim said... those first few ribs are great. A real neat feeling to complete
the first few pieces of your project. I'm looking forward to watching your

One suggestion - before taking down your rib making setup, make at least one
extra rib for a wall hanging. I wish I had done that - now that I want one
to hang up in my hangar I've got to cut all those pieces and learn again how
to make a rib (it's amazing how quickly you forget hard-learned procedures)

How can you possibly expect to get anything done in such a poorly designed

My Brodhead hopes this year have been dashed due to my employer...you
got to love how your job can get in the way a meaningful weekend in
aviation.
Anyway....I am going to have to cancel my reservation for a room at the
AmericInn in Monroe...10 minutes from Brodhead. We stayed there last
year and it was great, nice room, free breakfast, and a nice pool. It's
for 2 nights July 23-25 and a double queen room. Hotels in the Brodhead
area are usually booked for that weekend so if someone is interested I
can notify them as soon as I cancel and they can take the reservation. I
need to cancel by 5pm Tuesday July 20th. You can email me off list or on
my cell 801-603-3394.

Same here....well, job AND stuff at home that needs my attention so I'm having
to cancel my Brodhead trip and a room (in Rockford).
And of all trips to have to cancel, I HATE having to cancel this year! I was really
looking forward to even getting to spend one day with my Pietenpol friends.
Very depressing....oh well, at least there's STILL a Piet in my workshop...ahhhhhhhh.

When I built my ribs, I did the first one out of pine that I cut out of
stuff I had lying around. I felt it would give me good practice, and help
me make sure that everything was set up right and working. I now I have a
nice example rib hanging on my wall at school.

Thanks to those sending back their info. Some had problems opening the

fill out the document and return the file attached. That way it's easier

I've built several of Norm's projects and use his ideas all the time (used a few
on my Piet!).
And Chris' westcoastpiet site...awesome! I'm still amazed at how, even after 8
yrs on my Piet project, I can look at the pics over there and find out how to
solve an issue I may have been thinking about for a while. Fantastic resource!
I'll be coming through Raleigh (I'll be doing some consulting in Rocky Mount NC)
the first week in August and look forward to the 3 of us hopefully getting together
for a visit.

Thanks Jim -
Norm has been an influence for years! Your pictures on West Coast Piet have also
been a great help. Thanks for posting them, I need to do the same.
Jack says you may be coming to town. If you do, we need to try and get together.
I need Jack to come by and check on my work before I get too far.

Wow, totally agree! I don't know how anyone can work in such a clean shop but...maybe
it can be done.... :-)
I see maybe some signs of Norm Abrams' influence? (one of my personal heroes....)
And isn't it an amazing feeling holding those first few ribs? I love that part.
And yes, thanks for the inspiration!

(it works out to 3.167 sixty-inch cap strips per rib). Shipping cost was $27.37
plus $4.50 to crate the plywood. The math comes in about $11.15 per rib including
shipping charges. That does not include T-88, which I picked up at my
local Woodcraft store. How do these numbers match up? Let us know.

Homebuilder Hints on the EAA website have been a great help. Invisible Glove
protective hand coating is great stuff. I ordered mine from Amazon free shipping
on orders over $25. I also used the EAA recommendation for a bending jig,
except I just cut mine out of 2x4 and it works great. I am not steaming my wood,
just soaking it in a water pipe overnight and putting it in the bending jig.
I am stapling my gussets. For those of you who have an AC Moore craft store
close by or you can order online, they have 50% off coupons on their website.
I was able to get a good stapler for under $10 with the coupon. I also plan to
go back and get more staples at 50% off.

| Subject: | Broadhead schedule questions |
Hey all,
After a couple of years hiding in the shadows of this list it looks like this is
the year I will be able to start my Piet. So I have talked the wife into going
to Broadhead this year since I have a day or two off and would like to get
more of an idea what might be happening during the weekend. I saw the schedule
for saturday but was wondering if there are things scheduled for Friday or
Sunday? I think I saw something about food but would like to confirm if there
is something at the field or at least in Beautiful downtown Broadhead. Finally
I would like to know where the signup sheet might be for the "Aw, poor kid
ain't got an airplane built yet....Let's take him for a ride!" list might be?
Hope to see you there and learn all I can. Thanks
Mark Magnusson

Probably a good decision, however you can't take five or six friends and a
couple of cases of beer out to the lake and get good and drunk in a
Pietenpol. (I have always considered fishing an excuse for getting drunk).

Hi Mark,
There is always food at the airport, and Brodhead has a McDonalds's and
Subway, that I know of, probably more other kinds of fast food. Lots goes on
on Friday, with Sunday being departure day. I should be there late Wednesday
afternoon until Saturday afternoon.
You're welcome to go for a ride in N12939, if you're not too big of a boy.

Neither. Those tendencies come from the pilot.
Seriously, the distance between the mains and the tailwheel is insignifigant
compared to other things such as what kind of brakes are used, whether a
tailwheel or tailskid is used, etc.
I've flown both and neither is particularly prone to groundlooping.

Thanks for the thoughts, guys. One other question I have is whether the
short fuselage exacerbates or moderates the tendency to ground loop.

Oh, I've already had my groundloop and it was in a long fuselage Pietenpol
(mine), but it didn't groundloop because it was a long fuselage. It
groundlooped because the axle broke.

Exactly what my A75 does.

My oil pressure is well up into the green, even at idle, up in
the 40s. In flight, it's right where yours is. And my oil temp
doesn't get to 180F till I've been in the air cruising or climbing
for maybe 10-15 minutes or more. I think you're there.

Still tuned in....
I have to wonder about the purpose of a HALF SCALE Pietenpol. It's much easier
to fly real airplanes than RC models, and for not all that much more effort he
could build a full sized version and do side-by-side formation flying with you.
