Now I even know that you call =9Cfish tape=9D to those steel or nylon wire guides used by the electricians to run electric wires through the walls The plastic or aluminum tube solution also look promising. Now let=99s fight again with those cables Carlos From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of bob-tcw Sent: domingo, 2 de Dezembro de 2012 00:56 Subject: Re: RV10-List: Routing the Elevator Trim cables Carlos, The first time I tried to route those cables I thought, =9C how is this possible?=9D fighting them all the way. So when I put them together after paint I attached a fish tape to the end of the cable and was able to pull them through the bushings and that elongated first hole without much difficulty at all. Being able to pull the cable through while pushing it from the other end was the secret for me. I though I was going to have to open up the oval hole, but did not with the help of a fish tape.

From: Carlos Trigo Sent: Saturday, December 01, 2012 7:22 PM Subject: RV10-List: Routing the Elevator Trim cables Gang I am finding it almost =9Cimpossible=9D to route the CT Q-43 teleflex cables from the Elevator Trim system through the Horizontal Stabilizer spars. Is there a secret I must know about this?

I routed this backwards from th e rear spar of the HS forward. Then routed the cable fore-aft into this tub e. Then slowly pushed the cable and pulled the tube aft until the cable com es out. Literally takes less than 1 minute. -Mike Kraus RV-4 sold :-( RV-10 flying :-) Sent from my iPhone On Dec 1, 2012, at 7:22 PM, "Carlos Trigo" wrote: > Gang > > I am finding it almost =9Cimpossible=9D to route the CT Q-43 t eleflex cables from the Elevator Trim system through the Horizontal Stabiliz er spars. > Is there a secret I must know about this? > Any hints are welcome > > Regards > Carlos > > ========================== ========= ========================== ========= ========================== ========= ========================== ========= > ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 10:06:29 AM PST US From: Robin Marks Subject: RV10-List: Adel Clamps In an effort to eliminate all remaining zip ties I intend to order addition al Adel clamps.

A wdg-12 is the one you pro bably want for the smaller bars. The I tried a wdg-16 on the larger bars, b ut it appears to be one size too big.
