You are correct in re: hydrogen embrittlement, but if the plater does the job correctly, i. e., uses a so-called "pickle aid" in the hydrochloric acid dip prior to plating and follows that with a bak

Because that part of the fuselage molding must remain structurally sound it would be better to remove as much excess epoxy resin from the aft end of the cowl moldings before attacking the fuselage mo
Your mention of screw locations reminded me that there is another concern with locating the cowl attachment screw holes - the location of the panel attachment screw holes. As I learned from a post on

EXCELLENT list of goodies to make the job easier, John. Not actually a quibble, but I would consider the right angle drill attachment a necessity, not a convenience item. There are also some holes th

Although many builders use an epoxy pump, a far cheaper and probably more exact means of getting the mix correct is to use a digital scale. In the US various manufacturers offer suitable electronic s
Vinegar seems to react with the hardener to make it less of a skin irritant, but it does tend to sting a bit when the skin is already damaged. I can confirm from first hand experience that it works.
For Part !, the short answer is: don't worry about it. The slightly longer answer is: in order for corrosion to occur there must be an electrolyte present in addition to the dissimilar metals. On the
By definition, static electricity results from the contact of two dissimilar NON-CONDUCTIVE materials, otherwise known as insulators. Rubbing, or other relative motion, merely increases the effective
