    Subject: Re: Panel Cutting and Radio Stack Photos
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> Um, yeah....right. ;) Kinda sorta. As it turns out, we're kind of rushing to get it done, and Chelton is a bit behind on thier harnesses. So, they still owe us harnesses, and I'm still expecting them, but I'm not going to have them for the show. So, our plan is to wire the stack, and make our own harnesses for the time being. It might be some wasted work if we end up using their harnesses, but it may also be that we can call them up and tell them we want to skip the harnesses and see if we can work out a credit. To date, I'm missing the Airinc digital to RS232 converter also, so although the panel will be wired, it might not be 100% complete. I have the WSI weather module too. We're just going to do as much as we can reasonably get done before the show without killing ourselves. Luckily I'm maybe 6-8-10 months from flying, so there's plenty of time for a full finish later. This is a good warning to all, actually.....I know the lead times on many many products is pretty long. Almost NONE of your stuff will likely order and ship in a week or two. So, especially with the OSH sales piling up, my suggestion is to try to get your stuff ordered a few MONTHS in advance of when you need it. If you don't give it a 3 month lead time at least, you might be cutting it short. If you're not getting any EFIS stuff though, and going all Garmin and Steam, you can cut that time down. I can't complain too much...I was really rushing to get this done for the show...and, I actually really enjoy that sort of wiring. I'd trade ANYONE a pile of wiring hours for a pile of fiberglass work. ;) Tim Olson -- RV-10 #40170 Current project: Fuselage DO NOT ARCHIVE Rick wrote: > --> RV10-List message posted by: Rick <ricksked@earthlink.net> > > Tim, > > Those displays have a pretty low profile, looks like a piece of cake to get them wired up.

    Subject: Re: Panel Cutting and Radio Stack Photos
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> I forgot to mention one more thing.... The harnesses are expensive and a pain for Chelton to provide. There are new "G2" processors (I think that's right) in the new screens, and those cost more. They told me about the time I was ordering that within a week or two they were going to discontinue providing the harnesses with the systems because they just couldn't keep that added cost included with the new processors in them too. So, it is very likely that anyone ordering today will either be wiring their own Chelton harness, or buying it separately. The connectors are kind of special too....26 pin and 62 pin D-sub with HD .030 pins. Just wanted to prepare anyone going that route in the future.

    Subject: Cost effective NR in the RV-10
    From: "John W. Cox" <johnwcox@pacificnw.com>
    Here is a low cost NR solution for outfitting the RV-10 (four passenger). If you order the Bose Quiet Comfort 2 headsets from Bose Mailorder by 7/31 you get 10% additional savings off retail. http://www.bose.com/controller?eventVIEW_PRODUCT_PAGE_EVENT&productqc2 _headphones_index&pageName/index_3.jsp Sport Aviation just advertised 12 equal monthly payments with ZERO interest for those 12 months. These units are only 7 oz each (versus 12 oz for the aviation units). They have the similar capability of the aviation version, except no individual volume control on each headset. http://www.uflymike.com/ With the UFLYMIKE boom mike adapter you have a cost effective solution for a set of four for far less than the price of two aviation units. This guy is an ATP who found a better mouse trap. BOSE is seeing red cause scores of Commercial Air Carrier pilots are opting for the light weight and QC2 cost savings. I have no affiliation with this product or Bose. Just bought mine Saturday.... See you at OSH '2005. John - KUAO

    Subject: My Lucky Day
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> I had a pleasant surprise today....George Costigan, a new RV-10 bulder, actually put me down as his finders fee guy from Van's. I'm very thankful that he thinks I've helped him out in some way. It's a very nice surprise indeed. This does trigger me to mention to any lurking future builders though... When you order your Kit from Van's, you can referr a name who either helped you come to the purchase of the kit, or helps you in some manner with something....in my case, it's an RV-4 builder locally (Rick) who was instrumental by "letting" ;) me help rivet his wings, so that I knew I could actually DO this kind of kit. With his motivation, I overcame the fear of the purchase. Just remember, when you buy your first kit, you have the opportuntiy to pass on a thanks in the form of a finders fee to someone. I belive you should pick someone who you really think provided some motivation, or will provide you some help down the road. it's a big project, and ideally you'll have a local builder who can help...and they'd be the perfect candidate for such a gift. I'm ABSOLUTELY NOT fishing for more of these myself, but I would like to make sure people know about that policy so that people can take advantage of the gift and not just forget about it and let it go unclaimed. For the record, I actually don't know exactly what the finders fee is. I can't remember if it's cash, or a credit for stuff from Van's, and I don't know how much it is. I did ask my buddy Rick at the time, but I just don't know anymore. Thanks George, and good luck with your kit! Tim -- Tim Olson -- RV-10 #40170 Current project: Fuselage

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Jim Combs" <jimc@mail.infra-read.com> I have a table saw with a cat iron top. I back the saw plade down and back rivet using the table saw. It has extensions which helps to hold the plarger pieces. I cover the edges with a old bath towel to prevent scratches on the edges of the table saw. Works for me. Look in the phone book for a machine shop. They will have steel plates or can cut them for you.

Most of the tool vendors sell wimpy little plates that are just too small. I've seen a number of complaints on this list about that. Any ideas on where I could pick up something like that? If it's wood or aluminum, I know where to go - but steel is something I don't know much about. Would a metal scrap yard have something like this? What have you guys done? Oshkosh Friday - Sunday.

    Subject: Steel Plate for back riveting
    From: "Lloyd, Daniel R." <LloydDR@wernerco.com>
    I went to the local welding/ steel shop, they can order or cut anything to size for you. Just polish it real well, and route out the hole in your workbench top. Also put fluorescent lines all the way across both directions marking where your plate ends!!! sounds like it should be obvious, but if you have someone helping they might not realize when you are getting close to the edge, nor will they be aware of what happens when there is no back plate! Dan _____ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of jdalton77 Subject: RV10-List: Steel Plate for back riveting Greetings, I want to build-in a large (at least 36" x 16") steel plate in my benchtop for back riveting. Most of the tool vendors sell wimpy little plates that are just too small. I've seen a number of complaints on this list about that. Any ideas on where I could pick up something like that? If it's wood or aluminum, I know where to go - but steel is something I don't know much about. Would a metal scrap yard have something like this? What have you guys done? Oshkosh Friday - Sunday.

For you RV-10 guys, will a 9 or 10 inch bandsaw suffice or are there many times you wish you had a 12 inch. I'll probably buy from sears or home depot. Any specific specs I need to look for???

    Yeah, he stopped over in Iowa City but sadly I never actually met him (just drooled on the glass). Are they coming to OSH? If so, the airport hotel owner is hosting a pre-OSH pool party on Saturday (http://www.alexisparkinn.com/fly-in_pool_party.htm). Anyone flying by is welcome to stop in. I certainly wouldn't mind another drool opportunity. -Brian Iowa City, IA ----- Original Message ----- From: brian bollaert To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Monday, July 18, 2005 8:43 AM Subject: RV10-List: P7170077.JPG;P7170078.JPG While working on our -10 at auburn, washington, the airport manager came up to me and said there is a rv-10 that just tied down !

    All the back-riveting I have done has required the work to sit down flush on the back-riveting plate. If you have clecos inserted in every second, third or even fourth hole they will not let the skin sit down flush on such a large plate. I have used the one that Avery sells and have been happy with it so far. Andrew Rayhill QB wings 40078 Phoenix
