Cliff, I understand that when working with all kinds of powersaws, it is very important
to set your beer so that you don't have to reach across the blade to
get a drink. ALWAYS set your beer on the same side as your dominant hand <VBG>
The above statement was from one of my 9 fingered NCOs who lost a finger to a table
saw. He was still funny.

Oscar and Mike, Looks like I will be headed back to San Antonio this fall, when
my deployment is over. Back to Fort Sam and a good 5 day a week job. I will email
y'all later. I will be looking for a hanger for my vtail. Oh yeah and a home

Oooh, tactical error Ken. The thing is, ideally you want to screen the
applicants to make sure they are all comely lasses of virtue true (or
questionable, personal preference). However, you do not want them to have
any chance to practice the contortions required to get into the airplane.
This ensures that they will need plenty of assistance getting into the front
cockpit.....we're talking maximum effort on the part of the PIC. :)

Actually the banjo has an interesting history. One of the local Maine guys did
a monograph published by the Smithsonian (?) on the banjo and spoke at a small
gathering last summer. He had an interesting assortment of instruments, some
dating to the mid 1800's that showed the instrument's evolution. He used the
earlier style of strumming rather than finger picking.

With great sympathy for all of you who do not have this local support, today I'm
feeling very lucky.
As most of you know, I'm building with locally purchased poplar, fir and hickory.
I stopped by my local wood supplier, looking for aileron spar material. With
great interest and enthusiasm in my project, the owner sorted thru lumber with
me until we found a decent piece of 2x vertical grain fir, which he volunteered
to resaw to 3/4", which I will plane to the proper dimension.
Beats ordering and shipping!

Hi Gary,
Do not understand your pictures L. tailwheel/R. tailwheel shots. Are your tailwheel
cables fastened to the rudder pedals separate from the rudder cables?
Also do the tailwheel cables run through pulleys at the point they exit the fuselage?
Thanks,

grin on your face, fraillin away on that old 1929
Washburn, buddy Jack wailin' away on his
bodran........... I'm just sayin......

Ken - If you end up with LOTS of extra time I'd be happy to show you Fat Bottomed
Girl. She's in Georgetown, north of Austin. Probably two hours north of Oscar.

Subject: | Sterling's Piet project for sale in TX |
Some of you may remember our friend Sterling, who came up with the
concept of the TACOs (Texas Air Camper Organization). He has developed
melanoma and recent tests have indicated that it's going to progress
unabated, so he's preparing to get his things in order so as not to leave
his wife with a bunch of guy stuff to figure out and dispose of when he goes.
Here's the email straight from his keyboard, and he is not one to pull
punches or fool around and neither am I, so here's the deal:
=====================
This is the link to the video I just uploaded to my YouTube account. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vwbx3Q8cv7c
The video is really lousy and not typical of my work, but I am
in a rush to get a lot of things done before my surgery on 4-27. I hope
to get my auction on Ebay late this weekend.
I very much appreciate your helping me get word out on this. Life has
gotten very complicated in the last few weeks and I have so much to do
as I prepare for the big change that is about to happen. I'm in a
"Muy Pronto" mindset!
If you will be so kind to suggest that I'm selling this due to health reasons
and also mention I might not be able to answer questions off of my YouTube
account or through Ebay due to the surgery and treatment after. However I'll
do my best to answer if I can. The surgeon mentioned after surgery the need
to stay at home and out of dusty areas because of the risk of infection
(and maybe falling on my fat bohunkus).
I'm planning of putting the A-80 engine on a separate auction soon. It will
come with an aluminum prop... forgot what brand it is, but it is in storage
in my barn. Also, my Cessna 150/150 will be for sale soon. Not sure if I'll
put that on Barnstormers or where.
I do encourage "pre-bid" inspections and I would do my best to accommodate
anyone who would like to see this in person, at the airport in Ballinger, Texas
(Bruce Field, E30)
Not shown in my video are plexiglass windshields for the passenger and pilot.
I have these as they were cut by the original builder. I also have the horizontal
stabilizer I forgot to show in the video.
Thanks again so much for helping "communicate" this. I am just way out of the
loop with people these days.
Sterling

My Blackhawk brethren are working their butts off dumping water on those fires.
As far as I know, none of our Piet friends are in jeopardy.

I thought the reason for brushing was to work the water base paint into
the
fabric so it will mechanically attach its self to the fabric. I seem to
recall the chemical based paints chemically bond to the fabric. True
False?

Douwe,
Thanks for the info! I'll be using Benjamin Moore's Aura brand (0 VOC),
but
haven't decided on application.

Subject: Pietenpol-List: spraying latex
Anyone thinking of doing a latex paint = job=85
My new paint scheme is going to be a =93faux = clear-doped linen
look=94 with a
trim color edging and nose. The ceconite = will be sprayed with a
tinted
clear dope, but the trim color (a weird british = green) is proving
very
hard to match in dope, so I started looking at = latex.
I just purchased a new hvlp gun for work and just = finished some
spray
experiments with latex and I gotta tell you, anybody out = there
preparing
to do a latex paint job should really consider spraying. = I simply
am
amazed at how nice the test panels came out. The semi gloss I used =
really
mimics dope, or one could easily spray a clear coat of dope on top and
= it
would be difficult to tell the difference.
Now I just take my paint chip to Home Depot, have = them put it under
the
spectrometer, then hit the auto paint shop for the matching = enamel
for the
sheet metal and we=92re good to = go!
Secret seems to be diluting with windshield washer = fluid for good
spraying
qualities (smaller atomization) and floetrol for better = flowing
qualities
once the paint is on the surface. Mixed solution I used = took about
25
seconds to exit a standard viscosity cup. Seemed almost = impossible
to get
a run on a vertical surface too, which was kinda = neat.
