Looks like your cross braces will be a little different. I'm thinking of adding some verticals in the rear cabin area, like the Carbon Cub has.

Well, we've got snow. Build season has arived in the North West. I've been keeping an eye out for some PR Cub gear struts and have had no luck, so I decided to give building my own a shot. I downloaded an image from the larger Hanger 9 gear and don't think it will be too tricky. I ordered up some 3/4" aluminum round bar, and some 1/4" rod. The metal showed up yesterday, so I got started on the shock bodies. They didn't turn out too bad. I may polish them up a bit more for the final product.

Snow? I don't do snow. Even once every few years here is too much.

Let me know if you need anything milled.

Yeah you have a bunch of idiots down there with you who don't understand that those few times it does snow they gotta slow the F down on the roads. Don't seem to understand that snow is slippery.

It's the ice that forms regularly under the snow that causes the most problems. Our 'Snowpocalpse' a few years ago was actually ice (2") under a dusting of snow.

So you got it spinning?

Yes I do. I'll get some photos/video posted soon.

Thanks David,
I sure will get with you if I need some mill work. I appreciate that!

We also get idiots on our roads. Usually from out of state. I don't think they have the common sense to slow down and take cruise control off. They cause a lot of accidents in my area, even some fatalities.
