Kent
The web site and the panel are mine. The panel is made by Laird Owens a RV6
builder in California. As far as I know he is still building the panels.
His phone number is 805-522-4517. If that doesn't work the e-mail I have
for him is ownes@aerovironment.com . If that doesn't work contact me off
line and I will try to help you get in touch with him.

Right - the hand held would not be suitable for prop balancing. The
original poster only wanted some way of quantitatively measuring the
results of prop indexing as opposed to subjective impressions. It was
for this need that I suggested the hand held. It would, however, also be
useful for determining the need for rebalancing.

Thanks for the reply :-)
I got in touch with Laird Owens and he does indeed still make the
panels.
You have a nice site and I'm looking forward to more pictures. Very
interesting idea with the clay on the baffles. I will keep that in
mind.
Thanks
Kent
Working on the elevators, QB fuselage and wings on order.

Fellow builders,
Harbor Freight has their swivel head pop riveter on sale for $4.99. It appears
to be very good quality and for this price you can't go wrong. If you are not
familiar with the swivel head design it is rather clever. It allows you to
adjust "swivel" the head so that you can gain access to pop rivets in locations
where the standard pop riveter can't.
