(Does this kind ofexperience sound familiar toany of you--I"m told it has something to do with Adam and Eve and lifeon earth.) I told her what they had told me. She said she would callme back. About 45 minutes later she did, and that they had found anumber of them stored away someplace. They cost about $7 each and I got two of them. I thought well worth the price. So youare welcome to call EAA and see what you can find.I thought the book complemented the article by Howard Henderson(available from GEMcClaren), each making some things the other had saidmuch clearer. The EAA can also get you a reprint of that article byFred Wieck about making props. I think their charge for that was onlytwo or three dollars.John in Peoria ________________________________________________________________________________

EVERYTHING I make for Piets is 4130 no matter if it's a fitting, bracket, landing gear or motor mount. SAFETY should be our first and foremost concern regardless of what year our aircraft was designed... and that means using certified materials, AN hardware and lots of common sense.PLEASE use 4130 for your Continiental mount...Steve ________________________________________________________________________________

Hey nightmare-I've seen pictures of your woodwork and unless I'm mistaken, a lot of your gussetsare at 206 degrees. You'd better check them, and you might have to pop someof them off and rotate them 180 degrees to get them correct.--------Oscar ZunigaMedford, ORAir Camper NX41CC "Scout"A75 powerRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: motor mount
