Oh, and sorry.. I didn't have KR content in the last email, so here it is. Got the aft turtledeck on. DONE! Vertical stab just got glassed and finished up. Baggage compartment is complete.. All 1 cu. ft. of it! lol. Hey, what do you want, it's a KR-1 (kinda). Finally finished machining the prop hub for the corvair....
Anyone who thinks they want to... Well I'll leave that up to you. I spent about 40 hours on it total and $100 for materials. It came out nice, but I won't do another one like it, that's for sure. The $400 that WW charges for the hub and puck is WELL WORTH IT.. But of course you knew that. I only did it because I wanted to get more comfortable on the lathe and milling machine. I did finally take some pics, so the site should be updated shortly (after 2 months of neglect) Matt ------------------------------------------------- Matthew Elder Orangeburg, SC http://www.infinigral.com/melder My Airplane Project: http://www.infinigral.com/melder/flying/KR1/ ----- Original Message ---- From: Matthew Elder <eldo...@yahoo.com> To: KRnet <kr...@mylist.net> Sent: Wednesday, April 26, 2006 9:35:10 PM Subject: Re: KR> Tall KR builders Ha!
