Brunke" Subject: Re: RV7-List: Engine Options --> RV7-List message posted by: "J. Brunke" Dear Listers, When constructing the rudder halves together, it is advised to use Proseal or the tank sealant to initially join the aft part of both skins. Could you also use West's systems epoxy to do the job? Seems like you just want something that will provide some initial holding power. Would appreciate some advise. Thanks in advance, John Brunke "slowly but surely" ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 09:58:39 PM PST US From: Norman Younie Subject: Re: RV7-List: Engine Options --> RV7-List message posted by: Norman Younie You want to use a product that remains flexible. Expoxy is quite brittle and will probably crack and may cause problems down the road. Use what Van's recommends they have the best know-how. J. Brunke wrote: > --> RV7-List message posted by: "J.
