    Well said... It is truly unfortunate that UNcivil discourse has become the norm in our society. On this day, I'm thankful that there are a few bastions like this list that treasure civility. My contribution went in two weeks ago... Dave Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=414396#414396

    On many props, they simply add some additional paint or varnish rather than drill into the material. Very easy to add weight while it's in the balance jig. Dave Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=414397#414397

    I have only heard of adding paint/varnish also. Seems like you would have to add or subtract a bunch of weight at the hub vs varnish near the tip. Less invasive too. Not to say drilling holes or adding lead weights is not a common practice.

    Not an expert on this subject but I also have slept at a Holiday Inn Express. I would suggest you get a copy of Eric Clutton's book, " Propeller Making for the Amateur." One example he demonstrates is using lead weights to correct a lateral imbalance. This may be considered when adding varnish to the leading edge of one blade and the trailing edge of the other does not correct the out of balance propeller. His book demonstrates how to balance a wood prop and how to determine where to locate the weight if necessary. Very good explanation with drawings. Good Luck!

    Subject: Corvair College 28
    From: "IT Girl" <shlizbth@gmail.com>
    Hellooooo Good People, It has been a while since I have been on the list. I wanted to stop by to wish you all a happy Thanksgiving. I also want to let you all know that the registration for Corvair College 28, hosted by Kevin Purtee and I is now officially open. The dates for the event are 28 Feb 2014 - 01 March 2014, in San Marcos Texas. If you have chosen the Corvair for your powerplant, and are still in the process of building, I hope you take this opportunity to bring it down, and complete it at CC28. Kevin and I were able to rebuild our engine and run it at Barnwell SC (CC24) last November. https://corvaircollege.wufoo.com/forms/corvair-college-28-registration/ Hope to see you all soon!! -------- Shelley Tumino IT Girl wife of &quot;Axel&quot; NX899KP DO NOT ARCHIVE Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=414428#414428
