    --> RV7-List message posted by: "Franz Fux" <franz@lastfrontierheli.com> Hi Jim, the prepunched holes are slightly undersized and need to be drilled out for the rivets to fit properly. Keep the blue stuff on until final assembly. Your dimples will look nicer and without a ring around it. Primer is defiantly your own choice, some do some don't, those who do do it in many different ways,Godd luck, Franz -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv7-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv7-list-server@matronics.com]On Behalf Of Jim Nolan Subject: RV7-List: dimpling --> RV7-List message posted by: "Jim Nolan" <jamespnolan@earthlink.net> I just received my RV-7 Empennage and I have some questions that the list might be able to answer. It's been eleven years since I built an RV and I realize that things could be done differently now. 1. Do you guys drill out the pre-punched holes or just dimple them the way they are. 2. Do you leave the blue cellophane on the skins while dimpling. 3. Who won the primer war. I started my RV4 kit with zinc chromate, graduated to Variprime and haven't paid that much attention to what everyone is doing now.

    rv8-list@matronics.com, rv9-list@matronics.com --> RV7-List message posted by: Garey Wittich <gareywittich2000@yahoo.com> I have access to "Brand New" (in original packaging) MIL-T-43435B Lacing Cord, Type 2 (Polyester / Hi Temp), Finish C (Synthetic Rubber or Elastomer, NOT Waxed), Size 3 (50 lb min strength; 0.085" wide x 0.014" thick). This Cord is used extensively by avionic shops and airframe manufacturers to tie individual electrical wires into bundles for their avionics, etc. * Least expensive way to make wire bundles. * Will not cut into wires like Dental Floss used by some Builders, as it is "flat". * Higher Temp rating (-73 Deg C to 177 Deg C) than Type 1 (-55 Deg C to 121 Deg C) that is sold by Aircraft Spruce and Chief Aircraft for $21 per Spool. * Each Spool contains 500 yards of White or Blue Polyester Cord. (Share with other Builders.) * Excellent "Knot" retention. * See: www.versatileindustrial.com/gudebrod.html for additional info / pictures. * Will sell for $15 per Spool - includes shipping in the US.
