[RCSE] Disk Sander (was: Tool that I Want)
Here's mine, a little more expensive 10 instead of 12, but one lovely thing about this one, for modeling work in particular, is its low and variable speed... http://www.dxmarket.com/micromark/products/80849.html Dave Johnson At 12:34 PM -0800 3/15/02, Andy Page wrote: I want a nice disk sander, like this one: http://www.mikestools.com/Delta%20Pages/delta_31_120_disk_sander.htm From: Bill Swingle [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: RCSE Soaring \(E-mail\) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [RCSE] Tool that I Want.

Specifically, what kind of vehicle works out best for carrying our slope and thermal ships to the flying site? Mazda RX7 Convertible Great for the local site about 30 miles from the house. Fits 2-3 open class planes with ease. Gets cramped if it rains. For slope it would have to be any car with a good heater. Our slope site faces NW. The only time we get NW is when it is 30 degrees out. Any vehicle has room for a Zagi. Bruce Lewis Birmingham, AL RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

C-130E Hercules I went TDY to Panama Central America back in the mid 80's and took my 2 meter ship with me to fly of my time off.

Re: [RCSE] Favorite Transport Vehicle
Mark, Yep the C-130 is a fine transport but for frisbee flying nothing' beats a C-5. Took part in the great Viet Nam junkie retrieval exercise in '73 and got to fly in one back to Elmendorf Alaska from DaNang when our air evac jet broke down. Only 7 people on board and the whole back bay was empty. Do believe you could fly a M class HLG back there.

Re: [RCSE] Favorite Transport Vehicle
I use my Ford F-150, and have a Snugtop fiberglass tennueau (sp?) cover over the bed. Plenty of room, and it's nice not having to worry about stuff flying out of the bed. Plus, its lockable, and no one can see inside it, so if I park somewhere with the planes inside, i don't worry about that. I'd say any kind of pickup would be good, except for those really short bed ones. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: All this talk about favorite tools brings up a question I've wanted to get opinions on for quite some time. Specifically, what kind of vehicle works out best for carrying our slope and thermal ships to the flying site? For my purposes this would be a second vehicle, one that would only be used to make runs to Home Depot on occasion but mostly for carrying models. Dollar-wise, at 8-12 year old SUV or pickup with small camper shell would seen to make most sense. I'm thinking 4-wheel drive is a must for that added safety factor but trying to stay in the $3000-$6000 range. Anyone found the ideal transport?

Re: [RCSE] Favorite Transport Vehicle
Joe, Flew in one of those from Turkey to Germany and the thing was broke before we left and then prior to landing it called in broke again. We had to change planes to make the last flight to England. Would never want to have to work on one of those monsters. I would rather screw my way around the world, than suck and blow We used to put on our helmets on with the visor down an throw chem. lites on night flights with the cargo lights off. Did the frisbee thing to but as you know not a hole lot of room for that. See where all your tax dollars go everyone... Have had a good time now in over 30 countries and getting there can be half the fun.. thanks!!
