I'm unloading all my parts

[slam555]

Slam, half the fun of owning these relics is being able to fabricate some of the parts when they are unavailable or difficult to find. You can sometimes find parts like the cowl bumps at Oshkosh, auto parts stores (similar looks), or fab the part. The bumps can be made by using the best one you have and making a plaster mold to cover with fiberglass or making a wood pattern and forming 0.016 aluminum over it. As an example, I fabbed this trim fairing out of aluminum by making a cardboard Trim fairing.jpg pattern, transferring it to the aluminum, then forming it over a steel tube, and finishing it with hand seamers and my fingers. Yes there are times you may fab a part more than once!
I know it can be frustrating but enjoy the fun of owning an older craft and have fun accomplishing and installing your own creation!

I don't mind fabricating parts, and I've done quite a lot of metal fabrication for residential and I make custom trim so wood and modifying machinery is also nothing new, the fun part about this is there's no rush or pressure to get it done if I have to take an extra day, or remake the item differently I can.

my biggest hassel is I'm still a student, and need someone to get me my 10 hours flight time for the insurance, and to finish my training, to which I think its almost
solved , that and the radio issue, and it'll be gold

Its great to talk with others on this too, I belong to the EAA chapter here, I think I'm the only one with a T craft

now that I'm doing small repairs on my plane, the metal work, the shrouds,and the cover around the windshield and carburator,,look pretty banged up either from age or abuse,
my plane is a 45 b 12d the only piece in good shape is the nose cowl

I just bought a 46 b 12, its missing some of the 1/4 turn latch screws, would like to get around 19 of them 5 or 6 would get me by, also looking for a new or rebuilt or rebuild kit for the wing fuel transfer valve, mine has a small leak
I\m looking for some advice It has a new garmen radio but it won't transmit or receive I believe its a connection for the headset that isn't right, was said to be working before I bought it,
and finally the turn indicator is out, but would like to replace it with a all in one unit, (glass pack) that will fit in the gauge opening.
theres a bunch of stuff to tweak on this one but the pane is a good flyer
ANY help is greatly appreciated, Sam Tillery 501 519 8066

See Tim Popp for new fuel valves... He is on this site and others. As far as the radio (not mounted in the panel)...many choices. Really ones wants more than anything.

THe quarter turn dzus you can buy from spruce. There isn't any rebuild kits for the fuel valves. They just have one oring in them or a packing. Use some lapping compound on the seat taper. Can't help with the other stuff
