I recall a while back there was some discussions about what tools to carry in the plane but I can't find those posts via the matronics search engine. Can anyone help? Thanks, Jay Rowe #40301--154 hours. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:36:29 PM PST US From: Werner Schneider Subject: RV10-List: fuel valve with position both I might open Pandoras box here but it's not about primer so lets try: On my high wing Glastar I have a left/both/right fuel valve and it is used most of the time in the both mode, except when on the ground (crossfeed risk) or on low fuel situations. Now on low wing airplanes I see the left/right only, what is the reason for it (I guess there must be a technical reason behind that)? ok I get my firesuite out before I get the flames Werner ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:48:04 PM PST US From: Linn Walters Subject: Re: RV10-List: fuel valve with position both No flames. Actually, it's a good question. On the high wing, the valve is always under positive fuel pressure (in any attitude but inverted .... ;-) ) due to the head .... 5' maybe? On the low wing, it would be possible to unport one tank feed ..... and suck air.

I remember seeing someone use foam or some other material to stick screws into for painting. I have some blue foam that looks like it will spray debris all over the place. Has anyone used formed successfully? What kind did you use.

I use a piece of cardboard to hold PK screws (like wood screws) and a piece of Masonite with the holes in it .... like pegboard. Some foams aren't compatible with paint so test before you try and spray screws.

Poke some holes into a cardboard box with an awl and press the screws into the holes. Aircraft Spruce boxes seem to work particularly well...
