Quick question...
When bonding the door halves, do you use cab-o-sil in all areas
including where you use the glass cloth in the cranium and
other cavities, or is it just epoxy and cloth in those areas?
Door bonding today. The paint looks as if it came out pretty good
on the canopy. Man that SmoothPrime is nice stuff. It seems
that basically you roll it on, and then sand most of it off,
since it doesn't roll smoothly, but it acts as a very hard,
thin, body filler along with pinhole filler....and it's
got a tenacious grip.

Tim,
Looks like Aircraft Spruce is pretty proud of SmoothPrime too. How much
do you need for the project? I'd sure rather get a quart than a gallon+.

I've only done the very small amount inside the canopy so far.
I think I've heard reference to 3 quarts doing a whole
airplane, but it sure doesn't seem like if you roll it on
that this stuff goes too far. I can see easily using 1 QT for
the project as a whole, possibly 2. Depends on how much
other filler you use too I'm sure.

I find it easier to make the cuts on the other end. I drive a
cheap 10 year old car...buy 'em when they're "new" at 100,000
miles+. Don't spend lots of cash on other things, etc.
In my opinion, going into a plane purchase this big can be
awful touchy if you have any payments beyond a house payment
to make. But, a real cool thing would be finding a higher
paying job that you actually LIKE.

We built a RV6 to fly but we were always going to sell it to finance the
next one. We doubled our money on the 6 which is now paying for the 10
outright.
On firemans wages its what we have done ,that way you dont eat into
household money.
