I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

I like the black! mattolson 19-Jun-07 19:03 Nice job!!! You've given me inspiration to finish mine now that I'm mostly done with the Spit. What did you end up doing with the tail wheel? mhempel 19-Jun-07 21:02 I drilled a hole in a 1/8 by 1/16 stringer that I added to give the tail a little more shape and then slipped a piece of wire throgh the hole and carefully bent it into kind of a lopsided U shape. One end of the U is about 1/4 inch and the other end is long enough to span the width of the wheel well. I can reach in with a pencil and rotate the wire when I want to raise or lower the wheel, and then rotate it back into position to lock the wheel up or down. I'll try to post a photo when I get into work tomorrow. John M Oshust 19-Jun-07 21:25 Please do so, as the Mig-3 I am building has a retractable rear wheel. I would love to incorporate this technique into my Mig. Please sign in to comment on this image.
