The front bulkheads were of course attached to the prop. IIRC I had to move one once from behind the crush plate to in front of the crush plate when I went with a different thickness prop. I prefer them in front of the crush plate anyway to keep them from rubbing on the prop and scratching through the varnish.

The key is a good tight fit.

I always thought that they were to be attached to the spinner. How can it support the spinner if it is just flopping around inside? I think I must have missed something in this thread. And may all your screws be threaded. See you in Mt. Vernon - 2005 - KR Gathering See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building has expired. Daniel R. Heath - Columbia, SC -------Original Message------- I ran a single piece of teflon tape around the front bulkhead to prevent chafing and to ensure that it was a snug fit. The contributing factor to this event was the lack of a front bulkhead spinner. Do not fly without one. when you install the front bulkhead, install some threaded screws with nutplates to secure it. _______________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to krnet-le...@mylist.net please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html _______________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to krnet-le...@mylist.net please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html
