If the images posted here are in the original format we will need a very very big monito, today is very difficult see the images here, and one have to go from left to right to see them and read the post... Why dont put them just 800x600 as max size and a link to the original?.. I think it will be more comfortable follow a topic. just an opinion. regards Mario Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=322570#322570 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 05:36:55 AM PST US Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Image Size From: "AlRice" Image resizers are free online.

I was wondering what size bolts everyone has used to hold the fitting to the spar. The Grega plans, which appear to be a copy of the Baby Ace design, uses AN4's. The attachment to the lift strut is only an AN3. It looks to me that AN4's through the spar is overkill, not to mention weakening the spar even more.

There should hardly be any load on it. Do make sure that the jury strut is not centered on the main strut but a fe w inches off to one site.
