The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

Good to know thanks! Looks like they just backed up the bolts and rod ends with washers. Not a bad idea for "softer" material especially.

My 11 year old Carf 50cc Extra only uses a single Phenolic horn. There were warnings about not bolting a ball link to the side of it because the twist could make it fail.

Not giant scale but should be fun. A little Diamond Dust wing. Started covering the bottom today.

Falcon 32x12 and JMB mufflers mounted to the 180 tonight. Need to slap my ignition in, get a tank, an IBEC, and just wait for the landing gear to get in.

Not long until we can fire it up

Just curious why you went with a 32x12?

Haven't been in the shop since Monday night! Have been umpiring and keeping score for adult softball the last 3 nights. Have to make money for the rc slush fund Hoping to get back out there tonight for a bit. Decided to paint the firewall of the LX so that will delay things for a day or two.

Thanks. Creepy I can deal with, people trying to look at my airplanes I can't

As per Joe Mitchell's recommendation (I fly at sea level). I'll play with a 32x11W as well.
