Thanks but, I need the fitting (the cover plate) that twists onto the side of the fuse, before I can start attaching valves?

Dennis Savarese Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2006 8:22 AM To: yak-list@matronics.com Subject: Re: Yak-List: =ashBack] Yak Tools and air refill fitting??? Buy a Schrader valve fitting, 1/8" NPT threads, drill and tap the cover plate in the center, and install the Schrader valve. Remove the valve core from the Schrader valve. You don't need it. http://www.mcmaster.com/ctlg/DisplCtlgPage.asp?ReqTyp=CATALOG&CtlgPgNbr =421&RelatedCtlgPgs=421,1106&term=Schrader+Air+Valves&sesnextrep= 610450177804958&ScreenWidth=1280&McMMainWidth=821 Then buy this coupler/adapter from Aircraft Tool Supply and mount it to the air hose that attaches to your high pressure air tank. http://www.aircraft-tool.com/shop/detail.aspx?PRODUCT_ID=SK2043C&Return Page=/shop/flyer.aspx?PageNo=1 Dennis ----- Original Message ----- From: Kregg Victory To: 'Yak List' Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2006 9:01 AM Subject: Yak-List: Yak Tools and air refill fitting???

I use mine when the 'chutes are out or when the Co-owner and Mother of my Children wants to ride. They were made up in Tijuana at one of those car interior places. The foam zips out so the cover can be cleaned. "pleats" with extra material on top. I suggest only top grade aircraft interior fabric or automotive Dacron. However, you could re-cycle some old leather car seat material. OTOH, most of my flying requires a parachute; the Squadron Pack with temper foam cushion works too.

David H. ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 07:52:13 AM PST US From: "Yakjock" Subject: Re: Yak-List: Seat cushions Oregon Aero is making up a set for my CJ6 now. Contact them for info. Oregon Aero costs more than the local upholstery guy, but they will build a set that is much more ergonomically designed to be comfortable, and they will be designed to withstand an impact that might otherwise break your thighs or screw up your back by being forced down into the bucket by a high G impact. No guarantees, but these are the same guys whose helmet liners are helping men and women in the current wars to survive shots to the helmet rather than being killed or requiring multi-million dollar medical support for the rest of their lives. You can either have them do the final covers or have it done yourself. I am most interested in the cores.
