After looking at the suggestions, Google's SketchUp fits bill be just fine and a great tutorial to go along with it. Great suggestion, thanks guys! :-) If anyone out there hasn't tried this program and is in the same boat I was, try it, it works great! Thanks again, Barrett SLC, UT

I have one and love it.  I also have the Garmin 396 but I always use the 700 because it has the remote , touch screen and much simpler to use.  Plus it has a much bigger screen. From: Mark Jones To: KR Net Sent:

Personally I like Autosketch, by autodesk ... it's a simplified version of autocad. I took a 1 semester nite class at the local college worth every penny. I have version 8 and it was $99 10 years ago. They are up to Version 10 at $200 or go on Ebay and get V9 for $50 or less.    RED

Try Google Sketchup - there is a free as well as pro version and it is workable. On Thu, Dec 22, 2011 at 2:36 PM, Barrett wrote: > OK guys- I'm looking for some SUPER SIMPLE (and cheap) beginners CAD > software. While I am very computer literate, I've never used any type > of CAD > software

KR> CAD anyone?

I agree TurboCad is a pretty functional inexpensive program. It's easy to set up your environment, and use it. There is always a free 15 day free download, but as usual you can not open saved files after the 15 days unless you buy the program. I have used it for #D Designs since version 3 came

I would try Turbocad. It's fairly inexpensive and offers nearly the same aspect that AutoCAD does. I am currently using AutoCAD light, but had their full mechanical suite a few years ago. not sure if anyone else has a better idea. Fred Johnson Reno, NV Barrett wrote: OK guys- I'm looking for

OK guys- I'm looking for some SUPER SIMPLE (and cheap) beginners CAD software. While I am very computer literate, I've never used any type of CAD software at all and have no idea where to start to use it. So, with that in mind, what suggestions does anyone have? I usually just use some graph paper

Mark, -- I bought one of these units. I was surprise by the simplicity and ease of working this unit. This unit has been pretty accurate. The display formats are something we all have learned to work with in our aviation education. I had the chance to fly recently with a friend that was using

KR> dividing the elevator

I wrote a reply to this that apparently didn't make it to the the net... When I built the larger tail for my KR, I built a split elevator with each half removable. I used a pair of aluminum plates with 8 AN3 bolts to sandwich the two spar halves with the elevator belcrank attached to the two

Yes, I split mine when I built the larger tail so either half of the elevator can be removed. Some pictures of it are on my web site at You'll have to drill down into the KR site, then the tail mods. I used two aluminum plates to box in and capture the spars. I don't

Rich, I trailered my KR-2 fuselage to the EAA Woodworking Workshop in 1994 to demonstrate installation of the Diehl wingskin kit. We did not finish the wings that week, but did get a pretty good start. My snail's pace construction was greatly speeded up that week. I was also convinced that

As I have some major rework to do on the fin and sternpost, I was wondering about dividing the elevator into two halves and using, say, two L shaped metal pieces bridging the now divided spar so they form a box around the spar and bolted with two bolts (3/8?) o9n each side. This would make it
