I did the same type of construction using the example on
http://www.liming.org/ch801/
http://www.liming.org/ch801/table.html
I am really thought that these beams were over kill, but now I am wondering.
Has anyone else who built this type of table, found that they need to
reinforce because of
sagging?

All,
if you are expecting 80 plus people, pigs are out as you will need at least 120lbs
worth (they shrink). CHicken is easy. ONe option is to hire a group with
a Bar BQ roaster, order the food and let them cook it. We do it for our neighborhood
here in St. Petersburg. 75 people on average, and everyone pays for
the dinner.

Mark,
I'm planning to take my Travel Trailer and camp in the campground again
this year and if possible in the same location. Also I'll do my best to
"HOARD" enough space again. That is the hardest part because space for
campers gets critical and the "Campground Cops" always come by and
question us about the large open area next to my camper. I recruit one
or more of my workshop volunteers and friends to put their gear in the
area with "LEGAL" stickers then move them at the last minute to make
space. It worked.
Long story short, I hope CAN-ZAC, Rick and all are able to make it work
again. Remember, as a backup, I can always get a place down next to the
pond at Gene and Debby Jacksons "BIG" tent. They "DO" roast a BIG PIG
every year for hundreds of folks. Debby is now one of the volunteers in
my Metal Workshop.
I think salads would be great. However I sure don't have enough space in
my camper refrigerator for them though. They would have to be delivered
"just in time" to make it work.

Well believe it or not this is the time of year that I start planning
the BBQ for Sun-N-Fun. It takes me awhile to tie up all the loose ends
so that I have as little as possible to do during the show. As most of
you know I started this event as a builder just wanting to share a good

from day one, with the first year having over 80 people in attendance. I
don=92t mind at all either, I cover all costs for the BBQ and put out a

kicking in is Flightcrafters. However, I do not accept a donation from
Zenith or any of the Heintz family I=92m just happy that they have
chosen to attend every year since this event is not affiliated with the
company,. Well it was never supposed to be, but as Can-Zac now I can
hardly say there is not company involvement. The first year we have dogs
and burgers with many people bringing dessert and salads ( don=92t

wings and roasted corn. The pop went too fast and 250 plates disappeared
real fast. Flightcrafters brought a massive cake and the strawberries

Just a final word, all this is possible with the Generous help From
Rick Roberts and his crew. Though Rick now lives in Georgia his crew are
still in Florida and are willing to help out with the BBQ,s and all the
cooking, which for two guys not in the aviation world is beyond gracious
and I can never say Thanks enough to those gents. The campsite will

So far so good. I did put two layers of 3/4" material on top (plywood and

Matt,
My current table is 32" at the top which is a perfect height for me. I'm
about 5'8" tall. My previous one was 36" which was way to tall for me.
The right height really makes a difference. Not sure what I will do when
I start the fuselage. Should be OK except I won't be able to put the
vertical stab on. Since it's around 10' to the top it won't even fit in
the shop.

Matt,
I am building my workbench frame out of 1.5" square steel tube. I
plan to use some all-thread in each leg to create jackstands. The
jackstands will lift the wheels off of the ground and will allow me to
level the table no matter how uneven the floor. At the suggestion of
Jay in Dallas, I am going to build the table low and provide enough
range in the jackstands to bring it up to a normal height. It will
allow me to run it high for wings and keep it low for working on the
fuselage when it is in the "Boat" stage. I will post pictures in my
gallery as it comes together.

I have searched the archives and could not find an answer to my
question so
I thought that I would ask the folks that know.
I am building my workbench and would like to put it on wheels so that
I can
easily move it out of the way when not in use. But I am not sure how
easy
it will be to keep it true.
I am also hoping to get away with only building a 10 foot bench, that
space
problem again.
Has anyone had any luck with either one?
By the way how was the WW College?

To all listers who care,
It have been brought to my attention that the now famous chewing out email form
Bob Stone to John Starn was sent off list to John and only then did John choose
to post it to the list in general.
Therefore I apologize to Bob Stone and retract my suggestion that he owes the list
an apology. I still believe it was an unnecesarly bit of unpleasantness (much
like the War Between the States), but I believe that Irish diplomacy is the
better tool in this venue. There are ways to tell a person to "Go to Hell" in
such a way that they may actually look forward to the trip.
As to the flagrant indiscretion visited upon this peaceful sovereign email list,
the following disciplinary action will be taken regarding John Starn (AKA Kabong)
:
It is hereby decreed (A) that Kabong will be issued 25 demerits and
(B) said Kabong will be required to remain indoors during all recess periods for
the balance of the week, and
(C) as community service, Kabong will identify and delete all emails which mention
the dreaded Green Sctotchbrite for a perion of one month commencing today.

Dave,
The way I built my bench, was that when I work in the fuselage, I can
install the shorter, pre-drilled legs, (approx 18" tall), that will
bring the whole fuselage down to my 5'-8" working height.
Some pictures of my bench is at www.geocities.com/ch701builder (Only the
shop section is done at this time on the web site)

I have been looking for plans for metal floats in the 1500 lb range and
have found very little. If you could site any of the magazines or articles
you mention I would very much appreciate it.

Lane, I have built a XL and have seen photos of 701s with different style
floats so they are available. Also, I have seen several pair in the last few
months for sale in the Trades. Probably save some money there. Also, in the
various magazines over the past years I have seen articles about building
your own floats. If you can build an airplane, a couple floats should be a
snap. Check the archives. I'll bet you find something. Best regards, Bill of

only cost around $90.00 or so.
As for amphibs, you might be able to modify them to
work as amphibs. This is what I am thinking of trying
if Zenith (CAN-ZAC) decides to only produce completed
floats.

If anyone is interested in a pair of Avid 1100 Amphibious (Fiberglass)
White gel coated, excellent condition I can put you in touch with the
owner. I do know that he had them on for one season but removed them
because he said it got lonely sitting in the middle of the lake with no
one to talk to. If interested let me know. I'm sure he would send
pictures

Greetings Bill of G.
I have been looking for plans for metal floats in the 1500 lb
range and have found very little. If you could site any of the magazines
or articles you mention I would very much appreciate it.
Thanks,

Lane, I have built a XL and have seen photos of 701s with different
style floats so they are available. Also, I have seen several pair in
the last few months for sale in the Trades. Probably save some money
there. Also, in the various magazines over the past years I have seen
articles about building your own floats. If you can build an airplane, a
couple floats should be a snap. Check the archives. I'll bet you find
something. Best regards, Bill of Georgia

Considering the recent strings, nothing has changed. About all
anyone can do is hope they contact a few reliable resources of
information or get some fresh ideas while plowing through the muck.
Sometimes it takes multiple postings to come up with a solution that
works in your situation, sometimes you never find one.
The process is what sucks. You either get an answer and a long term
e-mail partner, or flamed and vilified by the list "Community" as a
whole and a negative string that lasts for weeks. C'est la vie.
My first progress report on Nuvite F9 is that I ordered it via
e-mail from Nuvite Sunday and expected to see it today. Nuvite is based
only 1 state away from me. No joy. Will let you all know how it works vs
G6 when I actually get some.

Looks like you could build half a plane in the time it takes just to get
your shop ready. Lots of work. I would probably die of altitude sickness
at your house. It's about 200' MSL around here.

The way I built my bench, was that when I work in the fuselage, I can
install the shorter, pre-drilled legs, (approx 18" tall), that will
bring the whole fuselage down to my 5'-8" working height.
Some pictures of my bench is at www.geocities.com/ch701builder (Only

My current table is 32" at the top which is a perfect height for me.
I'm about 5'8" tall. My previous one was 36" which was way to tall for
me. The right height really makes a difference. Not sure what I will do
when I start the fuselage. Should be OK except I won't be able to put
the vertical stab on. Since it's around 10' to the top it won't even fit
in the shop.

Matt,
I am building my workbench frame out of 1.5" square steel tube. I
plan to use some all-thread in each leg to create jackstands. The
jackstands will lift the wheels off of the ground and will allow me to
level the table no matter how uneven the floor. At the suggestion of
Jay in Dallas, I am going to build the table low and provide enough
range in the jackstands to bring it up to a normal height. It will
allow me to run it high for wings and keep it low for working on the
fuselage when it is in the "Boat" stage. I will post pictures in my
gallery as it comes together.

I have searched the archives and could not find an answer to my

I thought that I would ask the folks that know.
I am building my workbench and would like to put it on wheels so
that I can
easily move it out of the way when not in use. But I am not sure
how easy
it will be to keep it true.
I am also hoping to get away with only building a 10 foot bench,
that space

Has anyone had any luck with either one?
By the way how was the WW College?

Bob, I have to tell you, that chewing out was way uncalled for and over the
top. Another lister had declined to take time to help you because of the way
you teed off on somebody a while back to the effect of "mind your own damn
business" or something similar.
I had just replied to his email and asked that he reconsider because we are
on this list to help one another when your email tongue lashing hit the
server. That sort of behavior is not going to encourage anyone to reach out
to help when you ask. Where's all that anger coming from? Is it Touret's
Syndrome?
This list is no place for that kind of stuff. An apology to Kabong and the
rest of the list in general is definitely in order here. Short of that, you
may as well unsubscribe because nobody is going to want to bother with
helping you. Most of us have wives and can get chewed out anytime we want

I don't have wheels but I did follow these plans and have a flat strong table 12'
long & 4' wide. I have scratch built the tail feathers, flaps ailerons and
wing spars on it. The rivets were set using a hammer on the table and a one
ton arbor press. The table did move 4" during the riveting but when put back
in place it is still flat and strong.
Here is the link to the table plans:
I did follow the plans with one deviation, I used a joiner to plane the 12' and
4' beams after they were assembled.

| Subject: | Installation of Garmin GTX327 transponder |
I assume you have the installation manual. If not I can e-mail it to you.
Looking at the pin-out of the DB25 connector I see power being fed in to pin
15. But I also see pin 1 labeled as "Avionics Master On". Is it possible
that the unit won't power on unless it sees 12 volts on pin 1? Likewise what
do you have connected to pin 16 (external standby) or pin 22 (airborn sense
- squat switch). Some of these may inhibit the unit.
Also are you grounding both pins 13 and 25? Shouldn't matter but probably
the best practice. It would spread current across two pins instead of one.
You may get more answers on the aeroelectric list.
BTW: although a transponder won't transmit until it is interrogated and I
don't see any specific warnings in the manual I still wouldn't operate a
transmitter with out the proper antenna load connected. This is one
expensive box.

| Subject: | Re: Robert Stone's Outrageous e-mail and pic of the day |
I am certainly not trying to excuse Bob's "outrageous email". I know Bob personally
and don't know what made him so angry. Yes, his language and tone were totally
inappropriate.
Bob is a 72 year old retired Air Force veteran. He has built a KR-1 and a KR-2
and recently sold his beautiful Cessna 152, deciding to go the sport pilot route.
He is active in the EAA Young Eagles program and volunteers at local air shows
and fly-ins. He is currently having an A&P mechanic help him build a 601XL
quickbuild kit which should be flying before year's end.
Like I said before, I am not defendeing Bob's behavior. So please, don't get angry
at me. However, it is also inappropriate to make assumptions about someone
you have never met and post them on this list. Bob IS a builder and will be flying
his 601XL long before most of us. Here's a picture of the man himself.

The Wag Aero Floats are Aluminum. They were
originally designed in the sixties I think.
