Oscar,Let me know when you are ready. I'll have it here to send you for your test. I am only the caretaker of the Official- Piet- List- Industrial- Fish Scale. It now belongs to the ages!! This is an incentive to carve another prop. I am the low man on the totem pole with my lousy 260 lbs!Dan HelsperPuryear, TN-----Original Message-----

No, other than it is a "controlled" fish scale, and the same one used by (so far) three of us. So it conveys a certain amount of reliable information when it comes to a thrust measurement as compared to other Piets. :O)Dan HelsperPuryear, TN -----Original Message-----

Per the advice of K. Perkins I run pure water. Its in a heated hangar for the winter so I don't have to worry. As far as The Fish Scale goes, Gene send me your address off-list when you are ready. I expect to receive it back from Jeff Faith (along with some of his home-brewed beer) any day now :O)BTW how 'bout some photos? You're copying everything from others anyway, so there is no reason for secrecy.Dan HelsperPuryear, TN-----Original Message-----

After seeing Douwe's and Gary's airplanes=2C I am ashamed to show photos . . . . I am painting the wing as we speak. Just in case anyone was wondering=2C it takes 1 1/2 gallons of dope to make a complete wet cross coat on a 30 ft one piece wing (2X completely around wing=2C one side to side=2C one up and down). Just finished my 5th cross coat . . . . Wet sand tomorrow=2C silver on sunday To: pietenpol-list(at)matronics.comSubject: Re: Pietenpol-List: official fish scales

Welcome, Grant!! I cannot comment on buying wood kits, as I purchased all mine(Poplar) from a local wood supplier. I can say, though, that if you spent timewith Randy and Dan and still want to be involved in the Pietenpol community youwill do great! ;-)Gary BootheNX308MB-----Original Message-----
