Subject: | Re: Resaw Options |
the 5/4 i picked up was western red cedar.. i decided to use it after seeing that
others had also and looking at tons of wood info. it was a full 5/4 and perfectly
straight grain.. about 25-30 rings per inch.. it's beautiful wood.
I found 5/4 douglas fir and poplar also. I plan to use locally bought wood and
spruce doesn't exist in KY as far as i can tell... I'm an A&P/IA and know that
spruce is the norm.... but i'm comfortable with picking through the lumberyard
for the right stuff for me.

Subject: | McCormick Spruce |
I purchased my spruce from McCormick's a few years ago. They are nice folk
s and let me look through their stock until I found what I wanted. Was lot
s of fun picking my own lumber. I picked out two rough "planks" I think ab
out 11 or 12 inches wide, 1 inch thick...and about 20 feet long. With only
a little Nissan Frontier I hade them cut the boards so that I had two 14-
foot pieces and two 6-foot pieces. I slid the 14s through the sliding rear
window of the cab and let the rest ride on top of the box. The 6-footers
went inside the box. From those boards I got all my fuselage longerons an
d uprights plus most material for the rudder, elevator, stabilizers...I al
so picked up some plywood from them on the same trip.
So, if you're near McCormicks at Madison, WI, (only a two-hour drive for
me) or a similar supplier, and you can haul the wood, it's a lot of fun
to pick out your own wood -- and the price is right! I'll be going back
to McCormicks to get wing spar material one of these days...That said, I
have nothing against suppliers like Aircraft Spruce and in fact, I later
drove down to Wick's in southern Illinois for more plywood -- but I like
road trips. And they gave me an individual tour of their pipe organ facto
ry! How I'd love to have their workshops, equipment and stock of wood! Eve
n their scraps....

hanks to all for your ideas. Couple of things:
John - I think you bring up a very good point about the work that goes int
o
aking
our own capstrip. I may end up using McCormick for all the wood but the ca
p
trip and just order that from aircraft spruce.
Dave - I am by no means an expert, but is your grain running the right way
? I
ould
ave thought you would want it running in the other direction for strength.
eff - great info. You are the first I have heard mention 5/4 lumber. Was
it a
ull 5/4? Did you get it from McCormick? If I could get 5/4, I would feel
much
ore confident in resawing 3 1/4" sections out of the thickness of the boar

Since reviewing the replies on here to my first 4130/SS welding post and
looking
round on the web, I understand now why welding the two is a bad idea. Most
laces I saw said then even if welding SS to SS, you should have a professi

I thought I had heard that you cane weld metals with SS filler, maybe that
tarted

Anyhoo, the short of it is I am square now and fabricating. Thanks for the

y Piet is all Douglas Fir, but I bought 1 x 6 boards (finished out to

Question for those that milled their own cap strip, or are more experienc
ed in
esawing than I am. I have been thinking lately about purchasing my spruce
rom McCormick in Madison, and understand that they are selling 1" thick ro
ugh
ut.
If that is the case, how many "layers" of cap strip could I resaw out of
a 1"
hick board? I know I could get 2. Is it possible (for an amateur) to get
3
ayers? With the thickness of the band saw blade, and the need to run every
thing
hrough the planner, I am worried that 3/32" of waste between layers wont
e enough. See attached picture that shows what I am talking about.
Thanks in advance for your expertise!

f that doesn't work then I'll probably search the lumber stacks to find so

traight grain fir or hemlock and plane it to shape. Use a table saw to rip

Muskrat love is how archeologists will know that the seventies were nothing more

Subject: | Last trips for the year |
well looks like the last trips of the year are approaching,
Southern California right now and again next, out on 11/2 till 11/6
Tulsa week of 11/15
Chicago week of 11/29
Thought I would share those dates with the list in hopes of getting
together for a few beets and what ever, or not! Either way that becomes the
precursor to Buildapalooza 2010!
As my learned counsel and attorney has advised making sawdust in copious
amounts is highly recommended, I need the therapy, thanks Dan, I needed that!
Let me now if you're interested.

Ditto. Had rarely used a hand plane until I started walking back and forth in
front of the wing shaping the leading edge. Came out great.

Its true I got the best friends money can buy fortunately I got them for
much less than advertised which reminds me. Never pay retail!

But do not archive that as I want no lingering proof for which I can be
held responsible to or for.

Subject: | Re: Getting started-info to all newbies on ribs |
If you are getting ready to build ribs there is an excellent source of
information that has not been mentioned on this list before. Everyone
knows you need the books by Tony Bingelis, but the best article he
wrote on building ribs is in the February, 1994 issue of Sport
Aviation, page 79. I used the info in this article as my main source
for building the ribs. There are many great ideas and options
described there.
At the end of it, he also references an earlier article he wrote in
September, 1976.
These articles are available online for EAA members from their website.

There was a partial failure of the aluminum camshaft gear. Luckily the engine
continued running until Dan was able to successfully land the plane without incident.

Another great resource is Dan Halsper. He is the keeper of the lost papers
or Bernard Pietenpol. They are protected in Dans vault which he has been
known to open once each year. You may be able to save up all questions
Pietenpol and ask Dan when the time comes around again. He's a good natured
guy and will work hard to research the answers and provide them as
requested. Just don't ask him to open the vault between scheduled openings.
He gets a bit testy when you do and may put you at the bottom of his
research list and you never want to be at the bottom lost with Dan.
The last time that happened was 15 years ago. There's a good chance Dan may
give him an answer next year.
Meanwhile the guy has been languishing over epoxy or elmers. Poor soul.
Then there was some poor OKy from prior who now travels the countryside like
Kane from King fu seeking out projects to learn from taking ideas and
sleeping in hangars and workshops and selling used tools. Going from town to
town like the ......,do I dare say it. The unglued.
Mike P has tried to help with his tips but Kane the unglued can never find
piece until Dan opens the vault.
Please do not archive as i do not have any desire to anger Dan and be stuck
traveling with Qui tool Kane of oklahoma
