    Is that paint lacquer base? I bet it is automotive quality from a spray can. Probably pPg he uses to make the cans up so I can see the cost of the spray paint.

    Now that's a fine site you and Mike got there. Looks as if it should be on RF 7.5. If it were I'm sure the "crabby old woman" corner would cause your plane to explode! :cautious::oops:.... My club field was a beautiful place to fly too and I have such fond memories but things change (for better...

    Please do. I saw on the national news tonight a "Turbo" D'nd Beaver with floats made a mountain landing in Alaska! All aboard survived.

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

    Sounds like my club but they got rid of letting GS planes fly and membership is next to nothing now. Last time I drove by it had a bunch of FPV quad obstructions all over the run way and only two people quad racing. I won't be re-newing :thumbsdown:. On a happier note did get the repair...

    Thanks for the info Rob. But I am still undecided. The CF look does look nice. That's why I did not paint the spinner. I need to learn NOT to fix things that aren't broke :lol2:.

    Know exactly what you mean. But for me it's an EDF. Got a room full of mostly 3D junk but all I can really think about is getting the EDF's "wheels up" :).

    Might as well go first class and install the potty, sink, cook top, fridge, intercom and nap rack (bunk). At least she will know where you are and all you have to do is ask her to go buy some more beer ;).

    @Jetpainter Keep in mind this is coming from a brain dead old fart who ate too many cheeseburgers..... I did notice in one of your earlier pics that part of the spinner cone retaining bolt was still in the engine prop shaft adaptor. Do you think maybe it could have been "over tightened"...

    Here's my "theory"....... I ordered it through Chief (where I bought the plane) and in all honesty they said probably "July when the next container comes in". Now I know Toni has a new warehouse in SDCA and I bet one is just sitting there while mine is sitting in a hot container waiting customs...

    Rob I'm not going to say " I told you so" just yet but as I type this I bet your busy turning green with envy over your painted cowl and oh so close to being finished. I did start the wing repair on my 330sc today but a little over 3 months and still "no fuse for me" . The Fuse Nazi going to...

    Ain't that the truth Doug :lol2:. But hey....A nice nap seems to make things all better. Now where did I put that cheeseburger??? :laughing: Woke up from my nap and actually accomplished getting the repair started to the wing :mario-banana:. As long as I don't have to do math I'm movin' right...
