OK, i know everybody is packing and dreaming of beets and fumunda arounda crackling fire, but, i'm stuck here in PA "having" to work on my Piet!i was wondering if anybody had used the caulking tube T-88 with themixing tube? it seems like a good idea for mixing large quantities ofglue, like gluing on the ply sides and bottom to the fuse.Thanks, and everybody have fun!hopefully will get out there next yearEarl--------Earl BrownI may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where Iintended to be.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: anybody near OK City?

Well, that's too bad that you weren't able to get the beast to come to life onschedule, but overall, it sounds like you really came out on top.And in the whole story, there wasn't even one reference to "things" going missing,following a visit. Remarkable restraint on your part, Gary (and relief onthe part of JM, I'm sure).Bill C.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

If it isn't too embarrassing, could you elaborate on this comment when you gettime? > Anyhow, we determined that I had made a basic error, that may have fried my condensers,and we simply ran out of time.What mistake? How is it to be corrected? Perhaps you could just describe it over a cold one at Brodhead? I am an electronicsguy, but I didn't grow up on a farm OR sleep at a Holiday Inn Express, soI would just like to learn more about what NOT to do.--------Mark ChouinardWings, Center Section and Empannage framed up - Working on FuselageRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Engine Run

Mark,For the price of a beet, I will gladly spill the beans...But, for now, suffice it to say that the condensers connect to the NEG sideof the coils, NOT the POS side! :-O What's the fix? New condensers and movethe wires to the right side...Gary-----Original Message-----
