    T-88 vs EA 9410 for aluminum to woood

    Just curious which would be better when bonding aluminum to wood. T-88 or EA 9410. Or does it make much of a difference?

    Cutting Aluminum with a jig saw

    I'm at a quandary here. I work outside of the US and have quite a bit of free time on my hands when I'm not actually flying around trying to save the world. Last year, while I was in Afghanistan, I completed all of the aft ribs for my U-2 project. All tools and materials were sent, both...

    Bonding Metal to Wood

    I asked this question once before (I think on Oshkosh 365), but at the time I thought all my metal pieces would be secured with bolts as well as epoxy. Unfortunately, it appears that I do have an area that requires a metal tube to be bonded to wood. From what I can tell, it will only be there...

    Max EGT??

    I recently got a new EFIS installed on my Tango and I'm setting up the red line, yellow line, etc. for the various indicators. I looked all over the manual for my XP-360, but I can't find anything that says what the maximum EGT should be. Can some one clue me in?? EDIT: Same thing for Oil...

    Re-painting a composite plane

    At some point in time I'm going to want to re-paint my Tango. I probably won't do this anytime soon, but I was curious to the process involved. With aluminum birds, I know they are typically stripped bare, etched, primed, then painted for the most part. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use...

    Weight vs Staples

    Okay, I'm ticked off. Just split a capstrip while stapling a gusset on a rib. Using weights has been suggested in the past and I was curious if it just might be better. When using T88, just how much weight needs to be applied?

    Building a U-2

    I've been working on the U-2 off and on for roughly two years. It started in a Motel 6 room, but moved into my hangar when I finally got one with electricity. During that time, I managed to get a bunch of trailing edge ribs done, but that's about it. Recently, I took a good look at all the...

    Anymouse is in the house!

    I've been lurking on here for a few weeks now and figured that I better give an intro. I found out about this board when I was googling for information about what kind of glue I should use to bond metal and wood together. I'm surprised I hadn't heard about this place sooner. Anyway, my name...
