Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: rib jigBefore life changed my career directions, I was a Museum Curator. One boardmember was also a pilot and got approval to put an aviation section in thetowns history exhibit. One of the first things we discussed was mounting awing rib on the wall. Pilots all got it. Dont care if no one else did.Blue Skies,Steve DOn Thu, Oct 6, 2016 at 7:28 AM, Semih Oksay wrote:> Oscar>> Your explanation is poetical>> Semih>> On Wednesday, October 5, 2016, Ray Krause > wrote:>>> raykrause(at)frontiernet.net>>>>> Oscar,>>>> I agree!>>>> Ray Krause>>>> Sent from my iPad>>>> > On Oct 4, 2016, at 9:12 PM, taildrags wrote:>> >>> taildrags(at)hotmail.com>>> >>> > It's impossible to grow tired of seeing ribs and rib jigs.

So, we've all used Permatex Gasket Compound - which is nothing more than GasketShellac - and is approved for use in certified engines.Because it is a legacy item, developed in the 1920's, it will always be around,but maybe it's not as good as some of the more modern sealants around.Does anyone have experience using Three Bond 1215, developed by Fuji (I think)for Subaru? The Subaru factory guys swear by it, and it's apparently outstandingfor eliminating leaks at the crankcase flange split, as well as anywhere elsea sealant can be used. Impervious to gas, oil, steam, etc., and remains flexibleforever. (Silicone based)So, who here has any experience using it? Corvair guy pitch right in, as you'veuse many non FAA approved items... Also, any Continental or Lycoming types usingit?Where's William when you want to ask a question....--------Tom KreinerRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Fri, 07 Oct 2016 07:41:18 -0400Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Gasket Shellac???
