One clever trick I read on one of these lists was to use
an old office chair with the back removed. One of those
chairs that are height adjustable. You might be able to
pick some up at a junkyard or "Goodwill" type place.

Hi folks,
I am about to start cutting holes in the ribs for conduit, pitot, etc. How

burrings. I was thinking about some sort of hole saw. There is a unit that

I used a bunch of unibits during building. I found the the Milwaukee
bits (from local hardware stores) did not do well. The bits I bought from
Avery or Cleveland made very good holes. Best way to cut a hole is with
the unibit in my opinion.
You are going to be cutting a lot of holes before you are done. Get a good
set now, rather than later.

Michael, Try using the unibit in a slower turning drill. It should cut a
very smooth hole. Use some lubricant on it. They do not last forever so
maybe you just need a new one. It should cut a very smooth hole. Do not
archive.

Funny, I distinctly remember 'top quoting' as being the only thing used
by anyone back in the BBS days, the internet's early 'open' days
(88-89 'till about 94 or so), and quite frankly until the birth of
Outlook.
See below.

From rfc1855:
"- If you are sending a reply to a message or a posting be sure you
summarize the original at the top of the message, or include just enough
text of the original to give a context."
Enough said.

Wrong; There are plenty of standards. Without them, the internet would
not be globally interoperable, and would not exist in any usable state.
It's important to fight for standards for just that reason.
As for quoting, you'll never hear me tell 'anyone' to quote my way.
However, if -I- am told that -I- should be quoting the wrong way, expect
me to reply with an attempt to gently educate the requestor.

Just because you remember something doesn't make it a standard. Sure there
are standards such as tcp/ip and html. No one has ever adopted a listserv
posting standard that I am aware of in 15 years of using the internet and
listservs. The fact that no one has adopted a standard for posting means
there isn't one standard. You are attempting to raise your preference to a
standard, which no one is buying. Kind of like telling RV builders they
should put a Continental or Subaru engine on their plane....some might,
but you aren't going to persuade a majority, therefore there isn't a
standard.

Hi Michael-
Here's a link to how I did mine:
http://websites.expercraft.com/n51pw/index.php?q=log_entry&log_id=4868
I found the Unibit makes VERY clean holes that only require a light
scotchbrite touch-up when done. I've poked mucho holes with these with excellent
results. Perhaps yours is dull or has a cracked cutting edge? Try lower speed?
(no air drill)

That's a very good analogy.
The 'standard' engine for an RV is a lycoming. It's not the only engine
ever used, but do you dispute that it's the 'standard'? It's recommended
by Vans (As top-quoting is recommended by RFC1855), and while some
people do things a different way (Append quoted text, use subaru
engines), most people follow the standard (Use lycomings and top
quoting).
That said, the analogy does fail in that using alternative engines
doesn't negatively affect others, wheras append-quoting does.
And yes, everyone adopted the standard for quoting a long time ago.

INNOCENT GLOBAL 0.0000 1.0000 -4.4912
--> RV-List message posted by: "Ralph E. Capen" <recapen@earthlink.net>
Folks,
I am in the beginning stages of figuring out what I need to install for my fuel
system.
The engine is an Aerosport Power O360 with AirFlow Performance injection. I also
have a VM1000 for system monitoring.
I already have my fuel selector valve (Andair) that supports the purge system return
lines. The engine/injection system came with a mechanical and electric
boost pumps.
What I would like to find out is what have others already done as far as what goes
where from a flow perspective?
I know that I need to put my fuel pressure/flow transducers in the mix as well
as filter(s). Do injection systems have a different gascolator due to the higher
pressures? Do I even need a gascolator with an injection system? (probably!)
Some of these things may be in the instructions for the kit as well as the engine/injection
system - but I have also determined that they are not the definitive/only
way and do not always cover the design that you are implementing.
Thanks in advance,
Ralph Capen

Anyone who says you should always top post is a MORON!
Anyone who says you should always bottom post is also a MORON!
Top post, bottom post, inter post, it all depends on the situation, and
frankly who cares! If everyone would just TRIM the quoted text, it
wouldn't matter all that much where the quoted text was. Not trimming
quoted text is by far the biggest contributor to the hard disk space
needed for the archives, far more than off topic posts. It also makes
archive searches more difficult and time consuming.
Unless, like this message, you aren't responding to any one comment but
the topic in general, you should always quote the relevant text, and
ONLY the relevant text to your reply. I know some will argue, you can
look at the history to get the context, but that doesn't always work in
practice, especially on an email list (as apposed to a news group,)
where it isn't always possible to determine what message in a thread
someone is responding to.
I would like to leave you with one final word

notice the clause "take and adapt". While one can read the section
that you posted below as distinctly saying that you MUST post at the
top, one can also read the entire document, understand the spirit of
what the person was trying to say and realize the point of that entry is
not really about formatting, but ensuring that you include enough
context to your comment without reposting the entire thread. One could
just as easily read that section as saying "summarize at the top OR
include [somewhere in the post] just enough text of the original to give
a context. And this is how you get in-line comments to a previous
post, etc, etc.
Personally, I prefer the messages to be top posted. That way, if I've
been following the thread I don't need to scroll through the context to
get to the reply, but if I've come in in the middle I can scroll down to
pick up the context, or even read a previous post to pick it up. But
that's just me. Since that is the way I like it, I am going to adapt
RFC1855 to my use and top post my replies, which I see as fully in
accordance to its intent. I'm sure some percentage agrees with me, and
some percentage doesn't, and the vast majority just don't care.
Also, the argument about following RFC's to the letter because of
interoperability needs of the internet is only valid when you are
actually talking about an RFC that has to do with interoperability...
like DNS, TCP/IP, etc. not "netiquette".

So just what is RFC 1855? Can I get it from Avery's or do I need to go to
Aircraft Spruce. What about primer, epoxy or self etching? And does it
have a nosewheel or tailwheel. I bet it will not allow overhead approaches
only standard left hand turns (even if a mountain is in the way). I would
search the archives, but then again I might find it in the preview
plans. Is it a major or minor alteration, or maybe I just need an
STC. Will autofuel work if I use fuel injection or do I need electronic
ignition? If I order it from Van's what is the lead time and the best way
to ship it? Is it just me or is the RVATOR late again? I know I should
check the spelling, but I never did find out about the cool Dynon Test!!!

Hello all,
I am in the process of evaluating which compressor I should buy, I am
based in Switzerland but close to the German border, so contributions
from Europe are also very welcome.
My requirements are:
1) Performance to power one airtool at a time
2) As quite as possible
What air-tank volume is necessary and what additional features will I need?
Thanks to everyone

Get an oil lubricated compressor..very quiet..Buy as large as you can
afford. I have found that as the project has grown the need for air has
increased. I am also painting/primering all my stuff so my
oilless/noisy/compressor is really not up to the task.

Subject: | Re: RV6-List: Fuel system design |
--> RV-List message posted by: Jordan Grant <gra9933@bellsouth.net>
Ralph:
This E-mail is humongous because I attached some pictures and I
didn't shrink them down. Sorry about that. I'm lazy. (The RV-List will
filter them out, but you should get them in the direct E-mail)
I have the same setup. Attached are some pictures of an AFP fuel
pump installation and pictures of my solution for the purge valve. My
airplane is not yet flying, so I can't say that the system has been
validated, but here is what I did after a bunch of research and thinking:
1. No gascolator. Not required as far as I can tell. I'm told its main
function is to take water out because a little water in the fuel can
disrupt a carbureted fuel system. Since ours are fuel-injected, the
problem is mitigated. Also, the AFP installation includes a filter already.
2. Fuel purge: I ran one line back to my right-side tank only. The only
time you're going to use it is when re-starting a hot engine (its
function is to cool the fuel in the system). Other fuel injection
systems require an "overflow" back to the tank they are feeding. That is
what the Andair valve is intended for. With the AFP, you don't have a
constant overflow of fuel, so you don't have to go through the extra
work of installing two lines back to the tanks. My advice would be to
send back the expensive Andair valve, exchange it for the regular kind,
and run just one line back to the tank of your choice. It will save you
time and reduce the complexity in your fuel system.
3. For the purge valve actuation, I installed a spring in order to have
the valve default to the closed position - and stay closed in the event
of the control cable failing.
4. Fuel Flow transducer: The books say to have about 6" of straight fuel
line on either side of the transducer. I fudged that a little and I put
the transducer in the center floor assembly with the filter and pump. I
had to use a 45 degree fitting on the transducer to make that work out.
Other installations have the transducer mounted on the firewall, in line
with the fuel feed hose that comes out of the throttle body to the
"spider" on top of the engine. I think that would actually be a better
solution. That hose comes pre-fabricated for you on the Aerosport Power,
so you might have to make new hoses to make that work out. BTW - I have
fabricated my own fuel hoses out of the stuff from the Spruce catalog -
its not hard if you need to do it.
I had some difficulty finding information on this when I was doing it,
so I hope this helps you out.

That is where you are assume too much. And I quote

Given that it is a Request For Comments, and has been adopted by no one that I

--> RV-List message posted by: "Patrick Kelley" <webmaster@flion.com>
Well, I always knew I wasn't 'anyone' because I have never top-quoted. And
blaming Outlook doesn't wash because it was a long time before Microsoft got
their oily paws on me; at IBM I was on mainframes running VM w/PROFS, and
MVS or using OS/2. Before that, it was non-Intel machines.
Frankly, I hate top-quoting. When I send a message, I want people to see my
message, not someone else's. If they have no idea what I'm talking about,
they can look for the quotes in the footnotes. And if I get a top-quoted
message, it just looks like a duplicate to me unless I happen to notice the
different sender (know how often I compare senders on all the messages I
receive each day? That's right, 0), so it often gets deleted without my
ever noticing what was added at the bottom. But there is an upside - it
means that many fewer messages I have to scan to see if there's something
worth reading.
As for your 'standard', someone else has already mentioned that RFC means
'Request For Comments', not 'standard' or 'specification' or any other
similar term and, even if it did, it is non-enforceable. Heck, even the
HTML 'standard' is not enforceable, which is why the browser wars continue
to this day. So you go ahead and quote however suits you and leave the rest
of us to our heathen ways, m'kay?

Funny, I distinctly remember 'top quoting' as being the only thing used
by anyone back in the BBS days, the internet's early 'open' days
(88-89 'till about 94 or so), and quite frankly until the birth of
Outlook.

Has anyone out there been trying to get Peltor H52 Headsets?
I took advantage of a deal at Sun-n-Fun 05' and I was suppose to receive
them as soon as thay became available. It was only suppose to be a few
more weeks. They are still not available :-(
I have not been charged but I have been in contact with one of their
reps and he has given dates when they would be available, but everyone
has pass and still no headsets.
They even started advertising them in most aviation catalogs with
(available Aug. 05). I can not believe a company as well known as
Peltor could let the release of these to keep being delayed month
after month.

Hi Michael,
Do you plan to paint using this air compressor? If so, then
a big one is a good idea. Do you have 3-phase 400v available
in your workshop? That's good to use since most electric
companies in CH charge you for the max of the 3 phases, so
using 400v 3-phase will keep the load balanced.
I bought a Gde compressor from a German guy on Ebay, I think
it is this one:
http://www.guede.com/prods.php3?N=50008&U=&S=p_ko.php3
I'm real happy with it, but it's really much bigger
than I need, since I can't paint in my workshop. When
I bought it, I thought I'd be painting. It's not too
loud, and it only runs very infrequently.
What are you building?
