I am about to star refurbishing my 7ECA which I picked up on 11 Jan. Is there a place or can we set up a new page for places to find all things needed to service or rebuild I am starting from scratch looking for everything from parts Manuel to where to source fabric. It would also be great if there is a way to share our locations when posting. Next some of us have completed there project and no longer need for old tools and leftover material. So maybe a swap and shop section. Also would be fun to meet with local members.

Let me give that some thought, how we might best do that for our members. The BMW motorcycle community has their anonymous book or at least they used to. I can probably get location to show up under our usernames, let me see if that's possible somehow (I'm supposed to be painting ailerons at the moment! lol )

Thought I would jump back in hear any one have a parts catalog there done with or a source for getting one?
 
I found cd on e bay, thie univair covers till 73 mine is 79 probably not much difference. And thanks for response.
 
Wonder if we can have a members only portion of the forum that would have access to a pdf of these. I'm not sure what manuals I have at home, will check. But they could be digitalized with photos (into a PDF), not perfect duplication quality, but they would be legible.
 
Time to sit back and do my planning, as I am drilling out to many pop rivets to count it occurred to me they are all 1/8 but have different heads like the ones on flap gap seal plates seem small head where all the fabric are large head. So the question is did someone find a bulk supply and if so where did you order these from other than spruce. I believe I will go to Sun and Fun before I order any materials other than ME K to clean with. Any suggestions are welcome.if one of the other builders has assembled a materials list would be welcome as well.
 
That's good information if I counted correctly each wing has a little over 400 pop rivets this makes the need somewhere above 1000 to complet the service I was just unsure if someone has already done the leg work on sourcing there best deal, and was willing to share this information. I am going out on a limb and say most of are only doing this one aircraft so Any sourcing information will help all of us. And thanks for the reply
