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

    It is indeed. I had heard there were issues with the stock mufflers and actually this engine was sent out as a "review" engine whilst I was helping "FrankenKev" distribute them. @ChickenBalls and his cohert could never get the engine to run. Also, they said the muffler broke and I sent them a...

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

    Ok, back now. Where were we? Ah yes, the flange bolt hurdle! My first thought was to "slot" the one side of the flange. As I have seen some headers designed this way, I figured I could do that with my cut off wheel on dremel. But I have an issue with that. I don't like "taking" away from the...

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

    Hey Fellas; I guess I am stuck at home today due to really "WET" weather. Ugh.. At least it is warm. Right at about 50 degrees and loving it. Spring will be here sooner than we think. Maybe I can get a few irons out of the fire today and maybe get a few things caught up. Got off yesterday at 2...

    Hey, cut me some slack will you? LOL. I've had a few irons in the fire that I needed to get taken care of. However, due to the wet weather that we have here it looks like I have a day or two away from work which means that I can work on these projects at home. Yay.

    Scale Plans built P-51

    Hmm... odd! I am sure they are busy. I talked to Richard just a couple of days ago. He called me back to give me Kevin's number as I had some technical questions only he could answer. I know for a fact they have not gone by the way. Shoot me your number in a p.m., I will get it to Richard and...

    I appreciate all of your input and knowledge. The true culprit it seems was the plugged condenser fins. Once I clean them and put the furnace back together and turned it on, it's been chugging away just like brand new without even a hiccup. However, I will have your information to refer back to...

    You's crazy. Lol. Now this is a shining example of a true Enthusiast in our Hobby. What the heck, I'll fly my tank out before I go to the emergency room. Lol.

    Thank you. I always try to be as safe as possible. I have a leather glove I now use. We also have restraints and I use them religously.

    After waiting endlessly for my flight packs to charge, I finally made it to the field. Did you all know that flight packs and eggs are super related? Just as it is true that watching an egg boil does not make the water boil faster, same can be said of watching battery packs charge. They don't...

    Hey everyone, I got off work early today and looked up at the skies and thought to myself, "Now why ain't I flyin'?" Umm, couldn't be because I have nothing charged right? Oh well, think I will take a little well deserved weekend nappy-nap. I went downstairs and noticed the 330 just sitting...

    After long contemplation, I have decided to not do Brad's scheme. Oh I absolutely love the scheme there is no doubt. And again my thanks goes out to @Luchnia for locating it. I feel it was might "BIG" of him to pay it forward and share the proceeds with others. Yet another sparkling example of...

    All this talk of cold and snow in the North and all the sunshine and bare ground in the South is making me very agitated. To make matters worse, I got off work a little early today. Looked up at the clearing skies and seeing the sun shinning through the disappearing clouds. The temps in the low...
