Hi Rick

I used clear silicone and it has worked fine.

3M weatherstrip adhesive. Many hardware or auto parts stores carry it.

The best stuff I've found is the stuff Ford sells.

Rick, I used some gue I got at a motor parts store, Black tube, tough as hell 

when it dries and sticks to plastic glass, rubber and painted metal. Problem 

is the tube is at the airport and I'm leaving for S n F, Can you wait until 

next week when I return and can write you the name of the stuff ? Best regards, 

Bill

I used "Shoe Goo" from my local hardware store.  Clear, dries clear, 

water and solvent proof, and will glue ANYTHING TO ANYTHING.  This 

includes Lexan and will not fog Plexiglass.

Congrats Jonathan,



Now please slow down and do not put an artificial dead line on

yourself...Yes you CAN wait!



Assemble the plane and then stand back and go over every single stinking

nut and bolt one last time. Even better have someone who knows about

airplanes do it with you..



You will be amazed how easy it is to overlook something. Take another

day/week/month if you have to...Its nothing in the grand scheme of

things and could save your life.



Have a wonderful first flight.

I am Tom Knox a kit builder in Tarboro, NC.  I  have the rudder built and 85 

percent of the tail kit complete.  I had to  put it all back in the crate in 

order to protect it as I finished another  project...my house.  House is 

complete and now I have another problem...my  cardiologist say no more long projects 

to worry about. I am THINKING of letting my parts go.  Do  you have any idea 

how I would find someone who wants a tail kit.

Tom,



Let everyone on this list know about it. Which you probably just did. Also, 

maybe Barnstormers. I sold a rudder on Ebay a few years ago.

Just do a Google search as though you were looking for what you have to 

sell. When you find a site or two that show up more than once, see if they 

have free classified adds. Many do. Then post your ad there. I have sold 

several things that way.

Rick,

I used PolyZap, a form of "crazy glue". Worked great, only needed a drop 

each inch or so.
