Sit the foam on a piece of board and press up under wing with several little car jacks to get even pressure. Done this heaps when repairing boats, even shaped the board to help get even pressure. On large holes/gaps even put stiff plastic (ice cream container lid, tupaware lid, etc) on top of foam to stop pushing into hole/gap. regards Barry Kruyssen Cairns, Australia RAA 19-3873 kr2@BigPond.com http://www.users.bigpond.com/kr2/kr2.htm ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Heath It did sag just a little, but I taped it all around. This time, I am going to support from the underside with a support that presses against the wing and hangar floor, to get it a little better. I also used double sided tape for the final installation on that portion of the underside that goes between the two spars. ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Sun, 08 May 2005 20:46:39 -0500 From: larry flesner Subject: KR> fire control in the engine comparetment.

Wiesner ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Xerox used some IR detectors in one of their copiers back in the 70's. When it detected flame it would fire off a large firebottle. The system was a bit unreliable so guess what they converted to. A monofilament line (fishing line). It was strung across the heat roll area with one end secured and the other end attached to a switch actuator with the switch wired through the normally closed contacts. The line held the switch actuated with the normally closed contacts open and when a fire would melt the line it tripped the firebottle. Worked every time. Just size the line for the "burn time".

To: Message-ID: <001001c5543d$00e25ba0$fcf64fd8@hppav> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Purchased a used KR2 w/vw revmaster duel ignition. Previous owner said had problem with one mag staying hot. He replaced the ignition switch about a year or so and said that cured the problem until, naturally, just before the sell. I replaced the switch and the problem is still there. the left mag, reduced rpm, the right no drop. I believe the mag is a bendix d-3000. How do you check and identify the problem?
