RE: [RCSE] Old CD's as control horns
Try the helicopter chassis manufacturers, They throw away or sell the 1/8 carbon plate holes from CNC routing the Heli frames. I usually grab a bag or two every RAM show and it lasts me all year. Better than phenolic, which may be available at your local radio shack.

At 07:58 AM 11/24/02 -0800, you wrote: Ben and others, I live a couple of hours from Silicon Valley, and there are a lot of electronics surplus stores there. I find mine there. You also might look in an old TV set or radio for PC board, or check your yellow pages for electronics sources. We have a Siemens plant here and someday, I'll go through their dumpster. Radio Shack used to sell it, but, alas, no more. All this is very interesting I guess but I must be missing something. Why would anyone want to go through all that trouble? I just laminate 3 layers of 5.6 oz bi-directional carbon and cut my horns out of that. Seems to work fine for me and it's a whole lot thinner that a CD.

[RCSE] Joining surgical tubing
The method I have used successfully for a number of years now is simple and as yet without failure (it has seen over ten years of use): Take a piece of rope (I used flag line) about the same diameter as the inner diameter of the surgical rubber tube and wrap tighly the end with coppar wire till it is slightly thicker than before - make sure the ends of the wire are pointing inwards, as not to scratch the rubber tube after insertion. The end should be inserted about an inch into the tube; if it doesn't want to, try wetting it and the end of the tube a bit. Now wrap the tube, with the rope inserted, in a similar way, now ensuring that the ends of the wire points slightly outward ,as not to scratch the tube and the wrap with tape or use a piece of shrink tube. You can this way make rope hoops in the end of the surgical rubber, for tying on a line, or to push the stake through, too, using a slightly thinner line. This method does not work for massive bungees, of course - then I just fold the bungee over and wrap copper wire, or strong line, around.

Re: [RCSE] Old CD's as control horns
I glue polycarbonate all the time for my scrollsanders. I have found that certain types of CA glues will work just fine. Infact I have been using my scrollsader ends for control horns for over 4 years with great success. First, odor fee CA deos not work. Super thin CA from NHP has some thinning solvent in the mix that dissolves tyhe CA. My horns are black so I can see the plasctic whe it hit my fingers. Thicker CA does not work as well. I use 0.020 drills for my DLG control horn holes, and have also heated up the wire and done a pluge drillinning via melting. the polycarbonate does not break when twisted. Old CD's might break if there is some lamination inside. However if you use the clear CD protective pieces whihc comes in the bulk CD packs that should work just fine. I have found also that the solvent needs to evaporate to get full strength. I have had an arguement for years with someone who says it will not work, but somehow I have made over 1/2 million sanders and have yet to have the CA to sandpaper glue joints fail more than 25 times. I have thought about making control horns from my sander pieces, and generallu use scrap parts. Good Luck.

Will keep you posted. I don't know what glue works on polycarbonate - does anyone else? The solvent for polycarbonate (which, BTW, is the generic name for Dupont's Lexan) is methylene chloride. Really nasty stuff (as are most of the chlorinated solvents), keep it off your skin and use lots of ventilation. You can probably find it in a hardware store or paint store. I don't know of any commercial glues that include methylene chloride as their active ingredient, but you can make your own by dissolving bits of polycarbonate in a jar of methylene chloride.
