Who contacted me about the yoke covers for patterns?

I got them pulled and ready to ship but must have deleted your email with shipping address. PM me and I will get them shipped out.

Whoever is doing it, I still have the silkscreen negatives to print the buttons too (as well as a method to stamp the buttons).

Mike: It was I. I'll e-mail you again.

Hank: Thanks, we've got that covered. Turns out the originals are anodized and the mask is a negative, covering the parts that stay silver. The replicas will be madfe the same way. (I hope...)

I actually just shipped both covers, pick the best to use. Please send them back when finished.

Anybody got a good spacer that goes between the tubes that could be used as a mold to make more of those? Mine are split and have shrunk.
Hank

I still want two sets of pretzel balls with spacers and logo coins.

I guess I could finish disassembling these yokes and use those as patterns for someone to make some

I'm doing them also. We'll offer a complete "overhaul" kit.

Don't dissassemble the yoke if you need it for anything as you'll need new "J bolts" to reassemble it. They are cut off as part of the assembly process and not long enough to reuse.

You bet! Thanks.

Hey guys. I have the yoke covers for N82092 but not the Taylorcraft emblem that goes in the middle.
Any suggestions?

Hey guys. I have the yoke covers ... but not the Taylorcraft emblem

Wow, that's gotta be a first!

I'll have new anodized reproduction emblems in a few weeks. No price yet...

I got my complete overhaul kit for the pretzel wheels last night and to say they are "nice" is like saying.......OK I can't come up with a good comparison. THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL!! I literally took the Pretzel Balls out, put the button on and sat and admired it for half an hour! Absolutely INCREDIBLE! The small tooth and groove at the interface of the halves will keep the pieces in register so the old warping problem should be gone even if the new plastic doesn't perform as well as the old ones (it should be MUCH better).
If you have Pretzel wheels in your plane GET A SET! This is the best money I have spent on my 45 in YEARS. GREAT job John. Makes you want to go flying just to hold the wheel!

Aw, shucks....

By the way, I've decided that since I'm getting all this free advertising and free press, I'll donate $5.00 to the Foundation for each complete set (2 hub covers and 2 spoke kits) I sell through here.
