    Steve, I made my cable tension gage 5 years ago and it still provides accurate direct measurement for cable tension from 10 to 40 lbs. You could build one for less than $25.

    Thanks to all that responded. Larry McFarland, I purchased your tow bar and nose wheel collar for my XL and I love the thing. Your quality and prices are absolutely the best. I would buy a tension gauge in a heartbeat if you produce them... How about a drawing (plans) that you could sell?????

    From: "Don Honabach" <don@pcperfect.com>
    Hangar clean out day continues: I've put the following items up for sale on eBay... All these items are essentially new units (zero time). They were purchased as I was building my plane and now I don't need. The Stratus EA-81 and FWF Kit has no reserve - needless to say, I'll be sleeping on the couch tonight!
