Shook" Subject: RV7-List: Question - Countersinking Wing Spar I have come to the point where its time to CS the main spar and the #30 Countersink that is recommended by the plans seems to run out of blade before it makes the CS hole deep enough for the #8 screw. My test piece that I am using is dimpled correctly. I have the 3-blade CS set from Cleaveland. PS) I already have made myself a pilot out of a scrap 1/8 aluminum stock. That part works great Any help would be appreciated.

A larger diam cutter will fix the problem. )_( Dan ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Checkoway To: rv7-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, March 11, 2006 7:49 AM Subject: Re: RV7-List: Question - Countersinking Wing Spar Follow the instructions. Rivet the nutplates first they will serve to center the pilot. When I built mine I didn't trust that. I could have. I wasted all sorts of time using a backup strip with a pilot centering hole. Worked fine but took too long. Could have done it in less than half the time -- by (a) following the plans, and (b) using a ball bearing microstop cage rather than the cheap bushing version that came with my Avery kit (I upgraded to a ball bearing cage from Avery eventually). )_( Dan RV-7 N714D (833 hours) http://www.rvproject.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Scott R.

One of those is the parts list. Hope it helps. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RV7A/files/rv7partslist.xls ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charlie England" Sent: Friday, March 10, 2006 10:48 PM Subject: RV7-List: sorted/searchable parts list for the -7? > --> RV7-List message posted by: Charlie England > > Hi guys, > > I have a vague memory of someone offering a parts list in an orderly > format (excel?) but all I can find in the archives back through 2000 is > mention of one for an -8. > > Has anyone loaded one for the -7 into a searchable/sortable list? > > Thanks, > > Charlie > (fuselage inventory commencing) > > > http://www.matronics.com/Navigator?RV7-List > > > ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 09:21:26 AM PST US From: "Scott R. Shook" Subject: RE: RV7-List: Question - Countersinking Wing Spar I have a 3/8 #40 pilot, 3/8 #30 pilot, a 7/16 #27 pilot and a 7/16 #19 pilot. I moved up to the 7/16 #27 pilot but did not try it with the nutplate installed. I just enlarged my homemade "tool" a bit to accommodate the pilot.
