Randy...If you note. The cylinders on an engine,
straight or V or opposed, are numbered with  respect
to the crankshaft journal's position to the front or
sometimes rear of the engine...If a certain cylinder
is controlled by #3 journal it will be number #3
cylinder. Its that simplebob p

KR> 3 Gallon Header Tank

2008-10-12 Thread bob pearce
Fuel tanks...For years I have been soldering up my
tanks from plain old galvanized steel. Much as Piper
did for a long time...The fabrication is simple. It is
inexpensive. They proved to be long lasting and if you
should happen to develop a leak very simple to
repair..I would solder in a auto filler neck obtained
at the wreckers which solved another problems and the
necessary brass fitting were soldered right into the
tank. In weight I found them slightly heavier than the
aluminum tanks I had been so laboriously making and
lighter by quite a bit than the one glass tank I
attempted...I have been told that the alcohol that you
might have in the fuel you purchase degrades both
polyester and epoxy resinsbob pearce

KR> sanding joints?

2008-10-12 Thread bob pearce
Sanding jointsI have been building wooden
airplanes for over 40 years and using epoxy, including
T88 for the last 30 and since begining the epoxy I
have never sanded a joint. My joints are usually
planed now but for years used a planer blade in my
saw. Both with excellent results. I would suggest that
sanding, unless all the dust is removed actually
contaminates a joint. I might add that besides repairs
and restorations I have built 7 airplanes, 2 of which
were of my own design...bob pearce
