Dear Listers, There are just a couple days left for this year's List Fund Raiser. If you've been putting off making a Contribution until the last minute, well, this is it! The last minute, that is... :-) There are some GREAT new gift selections to choose from this year. I personally want at least four of them! There's probably something you can't live without too! And, best of all it supports your Lists! Please remember that there isn't any sort of commercial advertising on the Lists and the *only* means of keeping these Lists running is through your Contributions during this Fund Raiser. Let's make this a "Black Friday" for the Lists! Please make a Contribution today! http://www.matronics.com/contribution Or, drop a personal check in the mail to: Matt Dralle / Matronics 581 Jeannie Way Livermore CA 94550 Thank you!

The blade also has a lateral imbalance which I would like to address. I believe the book Mr. Wilson mentioned might be a great resource...I may have to put my balancing on hold until I receive this material. Thanks all. If God is your co-pilot...switch seats.

But remember it's only Weasel 1 when the Alpha weasel is aboard. Since I will be doing Weasel roundups more than giving rides to the little critters, it will hardly ever have the call sign Weasel 1. -------- Bob 'Early Builder' Dewenter Dayton OH Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=414532#414532 ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 02:04:09 PM PST US Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: beauty shot at 25 months From: airlion2@gmail.com Hey bob, it sure looks great and I love that turf runway in front of your house.

It is really upsetting if you get it wrong.

That composite expert was saying the only glue to use in aviation is resorcinol. I couldn't find the glue he really hated, but it was something like T33. He referenced the advisory circular 43-13. Said it was really well done. He wasn't FAA I don't think. Most people that were in the accident course, teaching it, were not FAA. Good (only): Resorcinol AC43-13 ________________________________ Message 14 ____________________________________ Time: 09:07:52 PM PST US From: Glen Schweizer Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Fwd: glues Modern glue were not. Referenced because they weren't available when that AC was written. Resorcinol is great if used properly and you don't mind using a protein based adhesive that can is an excellent food for bacteria. The T88 epoxy you refers to is a very user friendly product. The only real drawback is thermal resistance.(about 160f is all it will take) test several types before you bjuild your airplane. Isn't that one of the great things about experimental aviation? ------------------------------ On Fri, Nov 29, 2013 7:53 PM PST bradandlinda tds.net wrote: >---------- Forwarded message ------ >Date: Fri, Nov 29, 2013 at 3:40 PM >Subject: Fwd: glues >To: Williams Brad > > >I checked my notes.

Then I discovered that at 160 the strength is reduced by half. Doesn.t sound good, does it. Until you look at the numbers for the woods we use. Shear parallel to the grain for spruce is only 1120 lb, west.hemlock, 1170lb doug fir, 1140lb. In tests made by System Three they had wood failure at 1800lb but that was with Maple not spruce, etc. The tensile strength of the glue itself is 7000lb.. half that is 3500. I don't think we have to worry too much about temperature. but a lot more about getting good, clean, well wetted joints with the proper epoxy film thickness between surfaces. Also, just how many successful wood flying machines have been, and still are, out there in the sky? Clif It ain't what we don't know that gives us trouble, it's what we know that just ain't so."
