Lye as an aluminum cleaner? by Michael Horowitz
I've taken my aileron apart and notice corrosion on the thin aluminum parts, so I'm reading around about cleaning prior to alodining. I've taken a stainless steel brush to the surface and removed most of the corrosion, but it's really a PITA. Someone suggested using lye as a cleaner. Anyone have...

Ultrasonic humidifier -- eight bucks! by [email protected]
New-Surplus from American Science & Surplus, item #37146 I bought one of these for about $50 at a truck-stop near Needles some years ago. Even with air-conditioning the single-digit humidity you often encounter when crossing the desert can play hell with your throat and eyes. The old-fashioned...

Aircraft antennas by ccwillwerth

Epic LT on a Trailer by Kyle Boatright
Anyone know why a painted Epic fuselage, seemingly with engine installed, would be on a flatbed trailer traveling North on I-285 near Atlanta? My guess is that this fuselage was a display unit or mock-up, because the fuselage appeared complete and finished, minus the horizontal stab and wings...

Certificated a/c, inexpensive epoxy primer, autobody? by Michael Horowitz
I have a certificated a/c (rag and steel Tcraft). I'm considering the Superflite I covering system. Since the Superflite system apparently doesn't begin until the 'apply the cloth' stage, I'm free to use any primer. I'd like to use an epoxy primer since I've seen what condensation did to my...

Connecting hoses to pitot/static tubes by Ernest Christley
What is the best way to secure plastic tubing to aluminum pitot tubes. The plastic hose will slide over the aluminum tube, though it requires quite a bit of push to get more than 1/2". Would a couple of spring clamps work, or is something more significant called for?

fiberglass tapes by Lou
Ok, I want to reinforce all my corners with fiberglass tape. Aircraft Spruce sells a 50 yard 8.7 oz tape to do this job. Can anyone tell me why I shouldn't use cut strips of my 1.4 oz cloth instead of this very heavy tape? Lou

REQUEST: 14V illumination for RT459A transponder? by [email protected]
I have a RT459A transponder which was previously installed in a 28V aircraft. The internal illumination works, but is too dim at 14V. Does anyone have the instructions which specify which (internal) jumpers need to be moved to strap it so that works with a 14V dimmer?

Scrimshaw by [email protected]
October is when for a time at least the migger is replaced by the jeweler's torch and the powered hacksaw gives way to a Gigli. Circular cut-outs from flanging dies are rooted out of the junk-box, chucked into the lathe and magically transformed into wheels of every kind. Itty-bitty ball bearings...
