rolled a bolt in auto oil enveloped it in flox. After the flox hardened, the bolt came right out. Attaching the blind nuts is now a snap
I know that y'all don't believe me, but you can easily attach blind nuts with rivets. Yes, even to wood. No muss, no fuss, and no worry about getting oil on something you don't want it on. There are many ways to skin that cat. Mistake number 1502 would be to use the floating type of blind nut. They will tear up your screws. Don't ask me how I know, but I think it was mistake 1305 for me. I am now on mistake 1823 which was trying to "post cure" my ailerons in my oven. We were told that we might be able to get them to be straight if we did that. One exploded and the other melted and bubbled. I then asked the expert, and he told me that 125 degrees is enough. That would mean that they had "post cured" a long time ago when they were up in the attic. What a bummer. See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics Daniel R.
