Just curious Kid, have you ever used silk and/or silkspan?
Great question: if I say
I've used silk & dope to cover a plane
are you guys thinking I really did use silk, or are you thinking I used silkspan,
or are you guys just considering them the same thing that doesnt need differentiation
So, whats your answer to that,
does saying silk was used mean silk was used or does it mean
silkspan was used
(aka, is it wrong to claim silk used if one used
silkspan) ?
And what about using other tissue & doping skins,
do they count as using
Silkspan tissue (which you guys count as Silk)
How can I answer your question if we dont know how you are going to interpret the answer I give
of course
none of you guys' smoke and mirrors focus on me personally
is actually justifying MA making a goof on the magazine.... I just dont see how MA being right or wrong hinges on what Kid Epoxy has / hasnt done (nor that hilarious insult about me needing a buddybox).
I never walked on the sun, but I know its freakin hot even without that hands on experience, just as even with MA's goof calling
silkspan Silk, I know they are not the same... What I dont know is why folks here have a need to oppose me when I say silk is silk and
silkspan aint that
Ask a simple question and I get a 200+ word verbose rant. If I read between the lines I think the simple answer is No. My only point is that if you have ever used any of these fabrics you would know that their application is pretty much the same whether you use silk,
silkspan, Japanese tissue, cotton, Dacron, Stits fabric, etc, etc…. I would not recommend silk or
silkspan for a FF penny plane nor would I recommend Japanese tissue for a CL stunter however the applications would be similar in their use. So what is the argument here? That all these different fabrics are different or that the editing of a magazine that you don’t read is bad?
