Subject: Pietenpol-List: off topic---another great video ruined by musicWell this is totally off-topic so forgive the intrusion good people but am I the only one who wouldrather hear the sound of this gorgeous Rolls-Royce Merlin engine than hearing Marvin Gaye singing"Let's Get it On" ?Listen to how incredible this engine sounds (not to mention the beautiful smoke system) until the guyruins it at the 25 second mark. I know, I know.....it is his video and he can exercise whatever artistictalent he wishes but to me this is like putting whipped cream on an onion.Mike C.http://vimeo.com/53765837______________ ... ______Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2013 08:15:48 -0800 (PST)

Hans can correct me if I'm wrong. He's the engineer. Yes, I believe the sidestrips are for stiffening. I didn't install the strips initially and ended upadding them later when I started getting little annoying cracks. I used Hans' method for attaching the cowl, similar to what Mike Cuy posted: littlealuminum tabs cut out of 90 degree angle. Attached them through the firewallinto the fuselage structure with wood screws. Attached the cowl to the tabsusing clip nuts. I routinely checked the security of the wood screws andthey would get loose occasionally. I'd put a dab of JB Weld in the hole to helpsecure them.--------Kevin "Axel" PurteeRebuilding NX899KPAustin/San Marcos, TXRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2013 09:02:40 -0800 (PST)
