    I never thought of using stretch wrap to isolate a mold. Jim I like your idea of using shrink wrap too. I wonder if box tape will work??? Just thinking out loud.....

    It looks a lot more like a tool rather than a part.Kinda looks like it holds something open by the arrangement of the pivot...

    If you're getting Culver prop, check the lead time. Last I knew, Alena (sp) was VERY busy and wait times were well over 6 months.

    Yep. it seems mostly there. The spars need to be replaced for sure. The engine won't turn (big Surprise LOL). I gots lots to do now (as though I didn't before) I need to get off my lazy A and start getting stuff done.

    Well, I have a self control problem. This thing is a few miles from my house and the price just got reduced.

    Percepter N3 Pup
    Does anyone know anything about this plane? There is one here locally (well a "kit" maybe) It comes with an engine.
    Major question: does it have folding wings like the Avid?
    Thanks in advance.
    Edit: I'm thinking of trading in the Fisher because of the folding wing thing....

    OK, I have to admit... The reason I saw it was I got my Model C at a GOOD price because all the hangers were broken off the right wing. So when I hear of a good price on an avid/early fox, that's one of the first things I look for. I need to get started on fixing my plane.
