    3D Wing tubes and why .037 is unacceptable

    It would be half that, it's .037" total or .0185" per side. And it would be right on the cg :D

    I agree, a lot of planes do require more than what's built in when trimmed properly. Didn't mean it to sound negative at all, just an observation. :) Any pics of the interior or with the cowl off etc? Thanks, Rick

    Cool, thanks for the reply Greg and Congrats on your fine finish! That plane has really nice lines and looks like it would 3D well also. I saw a pic from the front and looks like it's got about 4+ deg's offset, probably due to such a long tail moment? Thanks, Rick

    3D Wing tubes and why .037 is unacceptable

    Proper Automotive Clearcoat is two part with a hardener, it hardens very hard, as long as it's cured I don't think it would be a problem.

    Sorry, should have specified. While they're both nice, I know the Red and Yellow one is a Comp arf. I meant this one. Good looking airframe. Thanks Bunky, I don't know anything about Aeroplus. Sleepy, Yes, get the scoop :) 15681=10132-SEC_0108.jpg

    Motorcycles?

    Al, you need a bigger trailer so you can take planes and bikes! :) I was never one to take many pics or save them, Crappy pic, but here's one from way back, one of my favorite bikes, it's a 91' ZX-7R that came straight from Muzzy's, He got them from Kawasaki, Modded them for AMA...

    Nice job. Looks pretty efficient.

    3D Wing tubes and why .037 is unacceptable

    I would agree that .037" is way too much. Part of the problem is, the part of the sockets you're able to measure aren't necessarily representative of the socket as a whole and is dependant on the spars where it's glued in. Most of the fiberglass sleaves are so thin they easily flex so unless...

    Clamp Locs ???

    +1 I have used those and while they do work when re-glued, taped etc.... they aren't (IMO) nearly as good as the ones mentioned above. I've had the Jtec's in different sizes and you really can't beat them. They weigh nothing and are flexible. 7266=2777-DSCN0210.jpg If They...

    Poll: What should we do with all of our old Swag from the other place?

    I like to use t-shirts to remove wax when I wax stuff like my Truck, motorcycle, 4 wheelers and airplanes. Use them a few times and throw them away. (wife doesn't want them in the home laundry) the old FG t-shirts will be perfect. Looking forward to the new ones. I like light colored...
