Repeat fueslage stand question

[dwilson]

I asked this question a while back on got some good responses, but not exactly what I was looking for.
I know I saw somewhere in the last 6 months a picture of a fuselage mounted to an engine stand. It was on someones website, but I cannot rermember where it was. I would sure like to see that picture again. I have a fuselage and an engine stand and some ingenuity, but if I could follow in someone elses footsteps it would save me some time.

Anybody know where this info is found?


Thanks,

Hi Duane

I made one for my -8. Have a look here - http://rv8bldr.tripod.com/the_fuselage.html about 1/3 of the way down the page. Pretty basic but it worked awesome.

Cheers

Here is my design (in VISIO format). Let me know if you need a JPEG

Thanks for the reply Vern,
I cannot open VISIO files. I run Linux and do't know if there is a conversion available. Please send or post a JPEG for me.

I applaude you. Most have never heard of anything but the great monopoly of MS (dare I say it out loud). :-). How about that visio file exported to a more open jpeg?

Try http://www3.telus.net/aviation/flyin...ivot_stand.dxf
for a autocad interchange format.

In keeping with slagging Microsoft... Visio is a poor excuse for a drawing program, but I have it. It won't output JPEG of my file... so hence the dxf format. Sorry, blame Bill Gates.
