I am concerned about Taylor, the starter of this string, he has not responded to any of the advice and comments here. I hope he hasn't done something rash.

Re: What did you buy for your 170 today?
Kelly I see you have your blanket there, isn't the concrete pretty hard for napping? And always remember what "Mayo the Clinic" says "Keep naps short. Aim to nap for only 10 to 20 minutes. · Take naps in the early afternoon. Napping after 3 p.m. can interfere with nighttime sleep".

Re: What did you buy for your 170 today?
Gary that setup with the eye bolt at the rudder cable connections is what I have on my airplane, what I notice in Kelly's photo is what appears to be the rudder cable link fashioned so that it has an extension on its bottom that the steering spring is attached to. Sorry the cropping of Kelly's photo...

Good video, it would be helpful if he also had pictures of cylinders with warning signs of coming failure.

Re: What did you buy for your 170 today?
Richard, Looks great modern yet very period. ........... This probably borders on the insane to put this much money in an old taildragger but I plan to keep it a long time, so... I have seen this before lots of money spent on and old taildragger with the intent of keeping it a long time................

Re: Generator Field Wire Size
Thanks George,
A little more light has been shed on this part of electrical theory. I was able to find a lot, on line, about ground loops in AC circuits and nothing about DC circuits.
I also came across an EAA article that recommended grounding the shielding at both ends of the Magneto P leads.
