Default Balancing Machines.

We all need'um, we all buy'um or make'um. Which ones are the best? I saw one in a thread a month or so ago. It looked like to loops of string, which loop around the wings and used a "Plumb Bob" to point out the CG. Doe's anyone have good photos or documents showing how to make this one?

Thanks!

I hate it when you move my posts! I thought about where the post should be and chose my selection accordingly. What are you talking about that balancing has little to do with kit building. I also like to post where I think I will get as many views as possible. This is BULONY!

Krossk, That response was not directed at you, Sorry. I placed my question in Kit Building and someone from R/CU decided it didn't belong there, and moved ot to Questions and Answers!

As a matter of fact, your lead got me all the information I need to make the balancing machine I was interested in, so Thanks very much! Again, sorry about the mix-up!!

Where did the last three posts on this thread go? There were five posts total on the thread last night, now there is only two! Do we have some serious censoring going on R/CU, OR WHAT!!!
