    Malcolm, I hope to be at your forum if I can leave the wood shop for an hour that early in the show. Anyway hope you can make it by our shop sometime during the show. Thanks for all you do for Latex paint on aircraft. I work in the Sun n Fun museum restoration workshop before the show and we have started using latex for some aircraft parts.

    Oscar, It was about 20hrs machining and figuring out the process. I made 11 total, one from scrap 6061 as proof of concept, and 10 out of 2024T3 aluminum. I was planning on using the best 9 out of the bunch and have a spare if they all turned out good. They are way over built and weigh somewhere around 6oz. Undecided if i am going to use them. -------- David McBride Rochester, NY dmcb84@hotmail.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=440326#440326

    Hi Dave, I just got done looking at your blog spot. I don't know what you are using to clean your engine parts. Last year I tried using Pine Sol (full Strength and it can go down the drain) as a carburetor cleaner. I worked really good and is is cheap if bought in the lager containers. Just be sure to wear rubber glove when you put your hands in it. I am thinking that it will work good for cleaning all the engine parts. The Carbs turned out nicely. I let them soak overnight. Has anyone else tried this besides me? -------- Scott Liefeld Flying N11MS since March 1972 Steel Tube C-85-12 Wire Wheels Brodhead in 1996 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=440328#440328

    I used an engine cleaning gun with soap and water to hose off the heavy stuff. It was coated in oil, caked in dirt, with aerokroil, wd40, AV30 from disassembly.Then soaked it in stoddard solvents, and wire brushed them. Finished with a mini dremel with brush attachments and q-tips for the nooks and crannies. I will eventually be doing this again when i find another core to disassembly for parts. -------- David McBride Rochester, NY dmcb84@hotmail.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=440331#440331 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/2015_04_06_125503_199.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/2015_04_06_125416_107.jpg

    Hi Charles, and thanks for the compliments. I do poke around here from time to time, but made a decision a couple of years ago that it was more productive to build rather than talk about it. I find this particular medium to be extremely beneficial, especially to a new builder who is willing to search for answers... aside from that it is a good place to argue about a lot of things that just don't matter. Lots of rude comments and hurt feelings around here recently. Oh, not mine... my skin is thicker than most, but I just don't find much of it to be of use to my personal goals. I have friends here, so I'm not pointing fingers at anyone in particular, just my observation of the nature and tone. There is a FB Pietenpol group that shares pics, status updates and general "motivational" posts that doesn't go into all the ridiculous back and forth that commonly occurs here. That's more my style at this point, not to mention that it is much more user friendly than the mailing list format. Anyhow, I popped in here while I was eating my lunch... not sure when I'll be back through. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions, but be aware that my ship is not flying yet. Oh, she'll fly, but I've tested nothing except for running the engine at this point. -------- Mark Chouinard All framed up... working on rigging.

    Dave; your hinges are beautiful, as I said. I am very curious to know the weight of that assembly with the two hinge halves and the AN3 bolt/nut that was in your original photo. I'll put together two halves of the cast hinges that I have, which go together with a clevis pin, and weigh my assembly. Mine use a thin washer and a cotter pin, so let's leave those out since both our assemblies require them. By the way, your Corvair cases look really nice as well. After disassembling my core and scraping off most of the heavy crud, then softening the rest with ordinary cleaners and hosing off, I took the case halves to an engine rebuilding shop and had them dip the cases in their cleaning tank. You can see what I ended up with here: http://www.flysquirrel.net/corvair/PB300016.JPG -------- Oscar Zuniga Medford, OR Air Camper NX41CC &quot;Scout&quot; A75 power Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=440346#440346

    Okay, Kevin thanks to you (and Shelley too) for your guidance and encouragement on my build. I plan on including several features you have included in FBG and will have more questions when the time comes. I had confirmed through other sources that my 'bribe' had arrived but apparently it was not enough, I will try harder next time. :) Seriously, thanks for being willing to answer questions, and for hosting colleges that benefit all who attend them, I know it's a ton of work. Good to here the rebuild is coming along. Tim Hansen Orient, OH ____________________________________________________________ Old School Yearbook Pics View Class Yearbooks Online Free.
