Shad,The time and pressure that is needed to apply the turning is very minimal. Thereis no localized heat issue to worry about.Rick Schreiber,Valparaiso, IN----- Original Message -----

Shad=2CThanks - this was occuring to me the other night as I laid out the center section.. As you suggest=2C I will get my fittings made first and use them as a guide. I can understand the pucker factor - every time I handle the spars=2C I'm not nervous=2C just have a greater amount of "respect" for that material.Tom B.Date: Mon=2C 19 Oct 2009 17:21:12 -0700

Pietenpol-List: Re: Winter flying

Hey Dan...I'll do that. I know he's gonna ask for those things before too long. I'll getout to the hangar and bring them home. Just this weekend I was thinking abouttrying to make some before winter gets here. That means I'll have to drawup some drawings for them. Before that though I'll take some pictures and postthem on here. I'll try to get you the important measurements. Every Pietenpoler really should make ski flying a requirement!Don EmchNX899DERead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

You don't have to bear down very hard. I was using alclad 2024-T3, and youjust want to scuff the alcald alyer, but not penetrate it or you can getcorrosion problems later. I don't recall heat being an issue, butunderstand I did this about 10 years ago.Jack PhillipsNX899JPRaleigh, NC _____
