(Les Kearney) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 07:06:27 AM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Re: parking brake valve From: "fdombroski" My Valve was purchased from Vans at about the same time. It was leaking from the shaft seal, especially when under pressure (parking brake set). I had to remove it and send it back for replacement. No cost, but a pain in the back! I used some couplers to plumb my brake lines together so I could fly while it was out for repair.

From: "EdKranz" I'm in the "preparing the garage" phase before I order my tail kit, and I'm wondering what everyone used for workbenches. I'm going to be building in a 32'x32' 3 stall garage, but the wife will need to be able to park inside at all time. I have a 32"x120" bench attached to the back wall that I built when we first moved in, and I just recently built a 30" by 30" rolling table for my vise, grinder, and soon jig saw and drill press. I'm leaning towards two EAA style benches on casters that can be pushed against a side wall when not being used. I'm thinking one bench will be 5' long and the other 6', given the space to fit them. I can't decide how wide to make them. Is 24" too narrow to build a 10 on? Would 30" wide be wide enough? Any other suggestions?

Ed I built two of these "EAA Regulation" tables. See http://www.eaa1000.av.org/technicl/worktabl/worktabl.htm The only mod I made was to use 1/2" MDF for the top. It is flat and square which is very useful. As it is very smooth there are no splinters etc. Mine tops have lots of holes where I have drilled through. When it gets to be too much I just replace the top. For casters, make sue you get fairly large wheels as the small ones didn't seem to last - at least more me. Rough concrete on my garage floor was pretty hard on them. Also make sure that the wheels on one side lock. I found the recommended size to be perfect. Also get a good brush so you can sweep the tops clean when working. This also helps distribute small parts onto the floor. VBG.
