Please resize your pictures. I'll third that. The amount of data I can download per day is limited by the provider, and a huge picture must be scrolled. However, there are times it would be nice to look at the details. Perhaps things with a lot of detail might be resized for the email, and a full size version put on a server somewhere so it can be downloaded if the detail is needed. -- ============================================ Do not archive. ============================================ Jim B Belcher BS, MS Physics, Math, Computer Science A&P/IA Retired aerospace technical manager ============================================

    You're kidding! That's excellent news Bill. It's pretty hard to get that done without any cracks to stop drill and repair. Good luck and rapid progress on the rest, Ed <<Lets not forget in all the arguing, fingerpointing and bickering that we are supposed to be building airplanes.

    I'm going to pass on the fifth bearing. Nice as it would be, from what I've gathered, the additional expense isn't justified by the way I fly. And, with a nice light prop, you won't likely put a lot of side load on the crank nose. There are so many out there flying for years without it, that I feel pretty safe as is.

    Subject: Nitrided cranks
    After 520 hours on my nitrided 20/20 crank I took my engine apart to check it out. The main bearings looked new still with no scratches or copper showing. They still had the aluminum sheen like they do out if the box. I was quite surprised. My plane now sport the 100 hp IFB (integral front bearing) that I designed for Aeromax Aviation. More data later but the stock nitrided crank should be just fine for that application. I would use our new rear starter alt setup though.

    Sorry about starting a new thread, but those giant images render the old one unusable to me. I made my aileron bell crank access covers tonight. This is dimpled for flat head screws, joggled for flush fit. A few days ago I finished my LRI Probe. What did you do?

    Pretty nice, Dan I did something like those access covers for the wing tips (I'll buy and install the strobes much later). Look very nice, but time consuming to make. Today, I dind't do anything worth photographing, but the centre wing (601-HD) is looking interesting, now that the seat is in place.

    I couldn't resist, so I went ahead and installed it, even though I'll just have to remove it later. Here's a photo. -------- Scratch building XL with Corvair Engine Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=254551#254551 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/accesscover_199.jpg
