  • Rope for seat

    Hi
    Can someone show me how is the rope setup for the seat. I have never seen the rope or how its attached. Thanks

    There are some photos around but what is REALLY needed is someone to do a video of how to lace it. I know when I did it I had to un-do and replace it MULTIPLE times before I got it in right. I think some spider DNA might help.

      I used dacron core braided line because it doesn't stretch. Was not happy with the sling from A/S because the grommets were not spaced simetrically, but started at the seat back as shown, then attached the front (after rolling around the wood spindle at the front to get the correct length).

      then laced from the centre to the outside, one line for the left one for right. Lace just like your boots. If you get the length of the sling at the front spindle right, the lacing will pull the canvas as tight as you want. Do knots that can be undone so you can adjust tension and access fuselage interior.
