Measurments in "32nd's" seem strange when the next step is to load the angle then
hit with a mallet but the parts fit perfectly when your done and have followed
the steps exactly....just a strange mix of precision measuring combined with
brute force.

Hey all -
Didn't get a reply from anyone last time I asked, so I'll try again.
Are the nylon bushings (ie: SB437-4) safe to be used in an application
that has them submersed in fuel constantly? Will they react at all?
Break down?
Thanks

If I remember correctly the Van's capacitance plates that I put in the RV-8A
used the snap bushings to run the wire though the bulkheads and the wire was
wrapped around the vent line. Quick call to Van's will solve this. For a
belt and suspenders approach you can completely coat the bushing in proseal.

It's probably a safe bet that they will be fine. However you can always drop a
couple in a mason jar of 100LL and put it on the shelf for a while to be sure.
If they don't melt within a day I probably wouldn't worry about it.

Thanks all! I'll be installing the Skysports capacitance fuel gauge
senders in my tanks as soon as I receive them (two weeks or so).
Hopefully it will be a good alternative to the capacitive senders that
vans doesn't offer :)

Something else to watch out for is that the longerons (particularly the F1013R)
will bend out of plane vertically quite a bit and need frequent re-adjustment.
Check the longerons for straightness in the vertical plane frequently. (Ask
how I know!)

Like the TV ad "Pay me now or pay me later".
Don't put ANYTHING together under tension, bend, twist, move, beat on & let
it relax until it fits.
Put it together under ANY tension & you will "Pay Later".
(Measure with a micrometer, mark with a crayon & cut with an ax) Just
another Old "combined" saying.

--> RV10-List message posted by: Jay Brinkmeyer <jaybrinkmeyer@yahoo.com>
I bought a big box of disposable shop towels from Home Depot and then cut up a
bunch into 3" squares. I use 'em for wiping up all sorts of stuff and you can
dip into Lacquer thinner to remove proseal. Probably cheaper than buying
premade.
I bought a manual sealant gun - and thought it sucked. I built my tanks two
ribs at a time using the "make up a golf ball sized hunk of tank sealant" rule.
Using the gun and pre-measured tube worked okay, but the stuff got all over the
tool (now you have to clean it) and the tube had too much material to use up
once it was opened. Popsicle sticks were much easier to work with and the cans
allow you to make up just the right amount or a little more if you're feeling
up to it.
Maybe I did something wrong?

Of the 24+ RV-10s flying, is there anyone besides Vic and Noel with a
three blade combination. It would be nice to hear some performance
details before another sales pitch is posted on the list. I understood
Randy had a reconditioned prop, Doug what are you running? I assume
Scott and Tim are going with the new Hartzell C2YR-1BF/F8068D.
Would you guys speak up and identify what you are now flying with or
