You really don't want to grind or sand on bolts. Only creates a stress riser whereyou don't want it. Dunk the bolts in some lye or even just drain openerthen rinse them in some water. The cadmium plating comes right off.Don EmchNX899DERead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

Hello,I try a search, but I do not find anything about what I want to know; so, my doubt.I am going to put a wing tank, and I want at least 12 gl of fuel (for 3 hours offlight +-). In the plans, the tank have it bottom in V, for obvious causes,But I am thinking in a flat bottom inclined to the rear of the wing with a slugat the very bottom. I don't remember/find the wing "normal" angle of flight,to see how much angle give to the bottom of the tank relative to the wing angle;do you understand what I want to do/know?.. may be you have something to tellme about this.Thank you.--------Mario GiacummoPhotos here: http://goo.gl/wh7M4Little Blog : http://vgmk1.blogspot.comRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Welding AN bolts

John=2C I had a couple of AN bolts welded to a flat 4130 sheet to hold my tailwheel. The welder did it without any ill effects. Chuck> Date: Thu=2C 5 Sep 2013 07:53:58 -0500
