Re: Scoop-Making<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you would like to dabble a bit in a small
glass project scoops are an ideal subject. Just about any epoxy will work
well. Check out the spoons available in housewares (avoid the kitchen drawers
unless you are batchelor or want to be one). You can make the mold using a
carved up spoon, play dough, paper mache,wood scraps, balsa or whatver
your imagination will provide. I like to hold the stuff together with
hot melt glue.Avoid polyester resin because it will probably get hot enough to
melt your mold. If you don't happen to have any suitable glass fabric, scrap
from the rag bag, or a handkerchief will do...these are not structural parts.
Use some kind of wax for mold release, I like paste floor wax like I use on
the table saw. Try to avoid a wax with silicon, it will be very hard to paint
otherwise. After waxing, spray with with hair spray.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If your model is not destroyed taking it out of
the mold, you spent too much time on it!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When you do the lay up, wax the mold at least 3
times, polishing each time. Spray liberally with hair spray. avoid runs, they
will require filling in the part. When you start the lay up in the mold first
paint it with a thin coat of the epoxy. That will assure a passible finish. It
takes longer, but small scraps of cloth are easier to fit in place without
wrinkles. try to make the fabric cuts at 45 degrees to the threads, it will
conform to the curves easier. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You don't have much to lose with this size
project!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Fitting the scoops to the fuse:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Tape sandpaper to the fuse (smooth side
down).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Rub part carefully against the location to be
fitted.</FONT> </DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Decided I want to use a scoop on my latest for
crankcase/bearing cooling. I know where to locate it on the cowl, but
have no idea of shape, angle, if any "ducting" is needed. It looks
like the scoops out there just direct air based on their shape
alone...without ducting.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Anyone have any
suggestions/ideas on this?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> What to make the scoop out
of?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> And how to determine what
size is "right" ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any insights much appreciated....thanks in
advance.</FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
