<DIV> Wayne, I enjoy Bob's inventions and I thought about that when I posted. But then again I'd worry about the ease of operation and strength on a Rube Goldberg setup. I'm running a DZ and the vibrations are tough on any mount. I really prefer a solid stucture up front and because of that I limit my choices to FG fuses. Also I know that Merle doesn't think a nose ring should be used if your running his A mounts. So again this is viable for a cowled fuse. Thanks, Mike <BR><BR><B><I>Wayne Galligan <wgalligan@goodsonacura.com></I></B> wrote:

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You gotta understand how Bobs mind works. He is what we would call the McGiver of the model business. and this can be done as I have done it on a Cap I had put a 2 stroke in. If there is room it can be done with 4 longerons and shear webbing to a nose ring mount. E-mail me off list for a photo.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV> Bob wouldn't itbe easier to obtain an Hyde ARI mount? Yes it's expensive but if it works it's worth it in my opinion. Mike<BR><BR><B><I><A href="mailto:Rcmaster199@aol.com">Rcmaster199@aol.com</A></I></B> wrote:

<DIV>What I did a while back was to drill the firewall corners and install 3/16" carbon tubing, similar to a Hanson arrangement. The tubing essentially formed the four legs of chair, extending forward and coming together into a seat. The seat of the chair formed the nose ring. The nose ring was made from rubber sheet. Worked well enough but wasn't easily removable. </DIV>

<DIV>Eventually I opted to remove all that and mount the cowling permanently instead. I opted for a hatch on the bottom of the cowling for engine access and that assembly worked better and was lighter. Good l,uck Bob</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hoping there's someone out here with a creative solution to a pesky problem.... on my own rotational mount, with the OS 1.60, I think I need to install a nose ring....Arresti is a "cowling" nose, so can't go there....don't want to replace cowling with built up wooden assy.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Any ideas for making some kind of tripod/post affair that would attach to the firewall ( I have area of firewall around the mount that is accessible on all sides) to mount the nose ring to???</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any ideas or solutions would be much appreciated!</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
