Hi everyoneI bought Nicopress sleeves and stainless thimbles for my contrl wires an tail bracingwires. I also bought a Nicpress tool which the seller advertised appropriatefor 3mm (1/8") Nicopress sleeves. Now, 3mm is 0.175mm smaller than 1/8"and I couldn't find the correct go-nogo size for it. Has anyone had any experiencewith metric Nicopresses? If so, can you guide me?ThanksSemihRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/img_ ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Metric Nicopress

Thank you for the information. I also have the CAD drawing for a Nicopress gaugein case somebody wants to make one by laser cutting and calibrating. As soonas I am confident with press size, this is what I'm going to do. The questionwas metric sizes. Now, do you think it is ok if I interpolate the dimensions,ie. 3mm is 0.175mm smaller than 1/8" so, finished size of the press should alsobo 0.175mm smaller?Thanks in advanceSemihRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Smoke oil recipe

As far as I know, ethylene glycol is common glycerin. It can safely be used onskin for cold cracks. Inhaling or drinking... I don't know. But if necessary,I can easily obtain the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) for it.SemihRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Memorial Brat Lunch

Hey Jack,Been talking to Mike Weeden at brodhead, here's the email I just got from himMike,We are working on our beacon memorial and developing an area for this sortof thing. One of our ideas is lasered paver blocks. We have one examplenow and If you or someone that knew Dick a little better could provide uswith the spelling of his name and his born-on date and departed date wecould make a sample to show during the fly-in and help us finalize thedesign of the display. Or link me to his obit. I forgot his hometown.We will look into a bench too. The plastic ones are not as maintenance freeas we'd hoped but we will try to find a local supplier for the concreteones. The cheapest plastic bench ends up being almost $600. I'll get aprice on a concrete one with an attached plaque.Happy Fourth,Mike WeedenSo, something is in the works. I'll keep working with him. We will figure outthe finances later. Thanks as usual for the brat lunch, seems a good venue fora memorial.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Sat, 04 Jul 2015 11:00:27 -0700

I think I owe an apology. I remembered the days we mixed glycerin with ethyl alcoholif antifreeze was not available in Turkey, about 40 years ago. Ethyleneglycol is, of course, mildly poisonous if taken orally. In the air, it shouldbreak down in about 10 days. So, if smoke is used not very near to humans, itshould be ok. In air shows we breathe jet exhaust, don't we?SemihRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2015 06:21:34 +1000Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Build following
