Bill,
 
Have you ever used the spring loaded push rod tubes?  I acquire= d a set of those when I first went thru that Gilbert Duty engine and neve= r had to get another set.  Even when I rebuilt it to a 1915, I was a= ble to use the same tubes.  I think they leak less because of the co= nstant tension.

The foam I used in building my KR, I ordered from Wicks. HOWEVER, some of the builders here are using the pink or blue 4 X 8 sheets of foam from local building supply companies. Can't remember but one of them is a little heavier than the other. I used the pink foam to lay up my cowl form. The building foam is harder to sand but much cheaper and no shipping costs, which can eat you alive depending on where you live. If I were building again, would use the urethane for the leading edge, which needs to be sanded, and the flat construction foam for the rest of the wing. The stuff will bend enough to conform to the airfoil and will give a beautiful flat surface to lay the glas on. Don't forget the old wood workers tip of sawing grooves into a sheet to aid in bending it. Don't understand your question about the stub wing tanks. Again, if I did it again, would build alum or glas tanks on the bench and glas them into the wing.

I added "Horner" style tips quite by accident. I was trying to figure out how to build both tips the same. I added 4 inches of foam to the outer rib and sanded the top side to match the wing. When glassed and cured, I sanded the end flat. I then flipped it over. I ran a hacksaw blade two inches in on the bottom side from front to rear while keeping it biased against the glassed top edge. After radiusing the corners and a little touch up sanding I had "Horner" tips and they were both the same. I wonder if that's how he did it. Your results may vary!

The pessimistic pilots say: If God had really wanted us to fly, He would have given us wings! The optimistic pilots say: If God had really wanted us not to fly, He would have given us roots! The realistic pilots say: If God had really wanted us to fly, He would have given us much, much more money! And I agree, it's a nice thing to be below the Equator these days!
