Sorry for the slow response. I did some unscientific testing on the hinges. I setupa little leverage test and hung under it. I don't plan on using the AN3 boltanymore as it is way overkill and would rather incorporate some kind of bushingand smaller pin. My high tech calibrated yard sale diet scale comes in somewherebetween 0 and 1 oz depending on how you look at it. I used a screw driveras a pin because I lost the bolt. In conclusion, dont use a screw driveras a hinge pin. It will bend slightly.--------David McBride Rochester, NY dmcb84(at)hotmail.comRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/2015 ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: New Pietvair Forum for Corvair Builders and Flyers IsUp
Pietenpol-List: New Pietvair Forum for Corvair Builders and Flyers Is

I wanted to let the entire forum, but especially those that are planning on usinga Corvair engine, know that a new forum has been created for the "Pietvair"Builder and Flyer. http://pietvair.freeforums.net/William Wynne asked me to help him and we have created a forum for just such asubset of Pietenpol builders. Many times Corvair questions got asked here thatreally did not belong on this forum. Now there is a place for those questionsto be answered. The Pietvair forum does not necessarily replace this forum. Itis simply another source of information for Pietenpol builders and flyers usingthe Corvair. It has been in existence exactly 32 days and so far we have almost70 members, 150+ individual threads, and over 550 individual responses.I am retaining dual citizenship on both forums and highly recommend that otherbuilders do so as well. And maybe the best part for some of you is that there will be no more Posts hereon Sherpas and climbing Mount Everest. William has told me his future postswill be on that forum, not this one.--------Semper Fi,Terry HandAthens, GARead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Wed, 27 May 2015 17:34:43 +0000 (UTC)
