    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
    From: tbyh@aol.com
    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.... Fred B.

    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. John Do not arvchive

    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. -------- Kevin Purtee NX899KP Austin/Georgetown, TX Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=317238#317238

    From: John Fay <jfay1950@gmail.com>
    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. John Fay in Peoria

    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. -------- Billy McCaskill Urbana, IL tail section almost done, starting on ribs soon Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=317287#317287

    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 John Sent via DROID on Verizon Wireless -----Original message----- From: John Fay <jfay1950@gmail.com> Sent: Thu, Oct 28, 2010 02:56:51 GMT+00:00 Subject: Pietenpol-List: 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.
