 |
|
Someone in the past posted some pictures of their Kolb side-by-side with wings folded and a dolly which cradled the wings and the main tube. The plane was White with Green and Purple. I would like to get some more info on this, such as dimensions. The base tube appears to be 2" square steel and the supports appear to be White PVC somewhere around 4" cut in half. I tried the search using "dolly", "tube", and other words with no success. So someone wouldn't thing I had a hankerin of lazy about me.
Any help out there. I want to make one.

Not the same colors, so probably not the same design. Steven Green had posted a nice design to the old photoshare a while back.

Steven is pretty talented and always willing to help. Fun to fly with too.
Hope this is of some help.
Do not archive.

Ralph:
You may be thinking of Dennis Kirby's rig. Go to my website at:
http://gtalexander.home.att.net
Then click on "Trailering a Kolb".
Dennis' is the last one on the list. His email is in the listing (you'll have to replace the (at) with the (at) sign. Stephen's is the first one on the list.
Hope this helps.

George and John, Both, Thank you. I believe it was the Dennis Kirby's rig. It looks "cheaper" to me (sorry Dennis, but cheap is what I need right now). I have contacted Dennis with a request to get me some details so that I may build one. I certanly like the Stenev Greene unit quite well. I'm just not that gifted welding wise nor monitarly to build that one for myself.
I need something that I can use to take my folded plane from the hanger (cost is $50.00 filded -$ 125.00 unfolded). Right now I have more time (unfold and then refold) than I do money.
Pooh-boy Ralph in Ohio!
