Ah, but it IS Piet related. I think Shad Bell is working on a Bucker and he's
a Piet guy (or a Grega guy, at least). And there's your connection.
At any rate, I think there is always something to be learned by closely examining
good clear photos of airplanes. Some detail, some connection, some finish,
or arrangement, or trim. This beautiful photo has lots to learn from. Oh, and
it's got SMOKE, too!!!

It really was held in Florida. Its amazing I can manage to keep the
Piet upright, but somehow post at least 3 different pictures upside
down. Hope this one works.

Ben,
Do you have a website where I could access pictures of how you did your
cockpit combing?

| Subject: | Any thoughts on this idea for turnbuckles |
One of the great things about building an experimental airplanes is that you can
demonstrate certain ideas and concepts. Turnbuckles are critical safety items,
but I believe that there is a way to duplicate the function of an aviation
grade turnbuckle by using all aircraft grade parts for a fraction of the cost
and the satisfaction of overcoming a design problem. The picture below is somthing
I drew up based on someones design that posted a picture of their turnbuckles.
I am not an engineer, the reason I am posting this is to get opinions from
those of you that have some real experiences and have knowledge that extends
beyond my own. In the end I want a safe airplane and not break my limited budget.
Oh yeah, this turnbucke(if I decide to follow through with it) will only
be used in some areas such as inside the wing and maybe a few other places.

| Subject: | Re: Any thoughts on this idea for turnbuckles |
In my haste I just realized I wrote 7/16" bolt. That is just force of habbit as
I am envisioning the bolt which is a 7/16 bolt head. The bolt I intended would
be a 1/4" by 28 threads/inch. Same goes with the 3/8" clevis bolt or bolt with
the steel spacer. Also, after another Maker's Mark I decided that this could
be modified for a homemade cable quick disconnect system. Just use a shorter
bolt and butt the straps together and THEN adjust your tension at the turnbuckle.
Then, all you would have to do to put it back together is tighten up the
"7/16" until it bottoms out and becomes snug. After that your cable tension should
be roughly the same.

Nice idea but I think you should increase the width and thickness of the
steel strap. 3/4" wide X .063 or .080
Also, an AN111 cable bushing instead of an AN100 thimble would be more
appropriate.

Kyle,
Just looked at your sketch, and my first thought was "How are you going to tighten
that nut/bolt?". I don't see how you would be able to get wrenches into those
spaces.
When "eyeball engineering" things, it's always a good idea to draw your idea in
a 1:1 scale. Draw every part as accurately as possible, including fasteners.
Usually by creating an accurate scale drawing, the feasibility of your idea becomes
more clear (or not).
