An odd thing about CAD... by
[email protected]
(aside from blank messages :-)
I use DeltaCAD, a simple 2D replacement for the traditional T-square
and triangles, to make patterns for parts, from a 56" rib to itty-bitty
things for home-made clocks, tiny steam engines and similar stuff. And
I talk about it, too. If you hope to share...

Another vendor gone - Ken Brock shutting down by
Richard Riley
I just got an email from the Cozy list. Marie Brock is shutting down
Ken Brock Mfg after the first of the year. Apparently the buyer she
had lined up fell through. If you need any KB parts for your project
this is going to be your last chance.
This one hurts. KB did a lot of parts for me over...

Stuka in Maine by
Steve Foley
I was at the Internation Sea-Plane Fly-in last weekend in Greenville, Maine,
and saw what looked like a Stuka flying over the town and down the lake.

Limbach or Stamo engine parts by
[email protected]
I'm curious if anyone has had experience getting parts for these
engines in the US? How difficult, how much time did it take and how
expensive? I'm specifically looking at their use in motorgliders (which
I'm actively looking for a Scheibe or Fournier, Vivat, or something
similar).
Regards,

Refinishing wooden prop by
Wallace Berry
I have an otherwise airworthy wooden prop that could use refinishing and
I'm seeking advice on how to do the refinish. What's the best way to
remove the old finish? Will strippers cause the prop to delaminate?
What's the best or most commonly used finish?
Thanks

Hi, be very careful how you protect your home or loved things and ppl.

rotax 583 vs. geo/metro engine by
[email protected]
hello
Does anyone know the power and weight comparison between a rotax
583 vs. geo/metro engine . When I said geo/metro I'm not too up on them
, so I suppose I'd be meaning the most powerful carburated one that is
non- turbo .
Thanks Ed
