Subject: Pietenpol-List: Lift strutsAt Brodhead we wee told by someone that Wag-Aero has mild steelstreamline tubing for 1/3 t0 1/4 the price of 4130. I promptly calledthem to find that they only had 2 sticks long enough, then some smallpieces. so much for that gold mine. To the lister who said he flew aPiet with round tube lift struts with balsa fairings (sorry I droppedyour name), do you happen to know what size and thickness they were?Does anyone know of a bulk source of cheap balsa wood? It,s been awhile since I checked, but it was just about as expensive to buy balsaat a hobby store, as to buy 4130 streamline from a supplier. If any oneelse has some suggestions on round 4130 size and thickness post the infoquickly. If having my water well overhauled today doesn't brake thebank, I am going to shoot up to Kansas City for steel tubing and moreturnbuckles from B&B to horde for a future project. Thank you LeonStefan, Nickerson Ks.________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Ryan's idea: FORD sponsored Piet gathering for 80th atOshkoshDate: Tue, 28 Oct 2008 12:05:37 -0500
