Subject: Europa-List: Mod 72 question
Fellow Europaphiles,
The Mod 72 topic has become too quiet. I've decided to give it a poke and
see if I can wake it up again.
I have all the various bits for Mod 72 on order. Etching primer, ACF-50,
16.5 mm hand reamer & Mod 72 kit.
I am wondering why the heavy wall tubing is not bonded in place with
something like Redux.
Is the press fit good enough to support the frame?
Would it be better to Redux the insert in place? Better support and
corrosion protection?
If not, why not?
Good building and great flying,
Bob Borger
Standing by, wearing my nomex undies, ready for the flames.
P.S.
The reamer will be available for loan to any Europa builder in the U.S. or
Canada who needs it for Mod 72.
