Nuthin wus said about temp, but Easter's snow was a record in Minnysoda. Not melting as fast as I expected, I suspect the 20F this morning had sumpthing to do with that. Even with the wimpshield on, I'll pass on a ride today.

I wondered about that. Had a lot of brakes & benders at the airline, but I don't think any of them would have handled that, used mostly aluminum on those, and thin stainless and titaniium, not much thick steel plate in an airplane. Nice looking patch, I like the way you did the holes to tie it down good across the middle.

Tim, Dave, don't know if this will help, but here it is anyway.

 

Small moose or big beavers , Got it

Thanks eh

Just got back from a TP reconnaissance run to Costco. No TP was sighted.

 

G'Afternoon, Woods....water heater replaced and I'm not even tired. Plumber showed up quick which he should since I've given him about 70 new house plumbing and heating installations over the years.He also knows that he gets paid on the spot in $100 bills....

 

Playing with airplanes all my life I use a lot of .063 aluminum and once in a while .090 on these old Grummans. I can do a slight bend on my brake but anymore that that I have to use a press brake. I have access to a couple. I'd have to reweigh the airplane to use your plate!
Hey Greg, Bob, Al, Dave and any others I missed.

 

It's not the prettiest but very sturdy welds. Time for paint!

 

Bob,

I can be in the hybrid clique now!

 

Are you saving on gas to buy more guns Russ?

 

Of course Lou! Always an ulterior motive.

 

Come on Russ, step on it. Lets see what she'll do!
