Gentlemen, Here is version 2.0 of my nose cradle. Version 1.0 was just a 8
inch bench with an old Beech Bonanza seatback and a blanket.
Putting it on wheels makes it mobile and gives me at least a foot more room
for my other plane. Also this clears my cowling and carb.
Made from am $8 (with a coupon) Harbor Freight dolly, scrap 2x6, and scrap
plywood. the 2X6 is notched to match the prop shape and padded with one
layer of sleeping pad (the type you camp out with) and a layer of Pipe
insulation, covered with carpet. The hole in the front is so that I can
hang it on the prop while I bungee it in. I bungee the cradle onto the prop
so that when I lower the nose I don't have to aim for the cradle, It is all
one piece.
When the piet is flying the planes will switch so that I can get the Piet
out without having to move the Beech Bonanza in and out, I intend on flying
the piet a lot more than the Vtail.
Blue Skies,
Steve D.
