Jim, That was not meant as a tirade. Sorry you took it that way. I was talking about gauling threads, in general, and was not commenting on the key upstop rail/prop nuts, specifically. If in certain actions, a nut/screw/bolt/whatever is constantly coming loose, it some times requires a different approach. There are many kinds of LocTite, some which will slightly "snug" the culprit and you'll still be able to to take it loose at a later time, without the need for blasting powder!<G> If I'm not mistaken, LocTite is a type of CA. As for my needing a nap....I'm fully rested and up to my neck in shop work today, which is going well. Your perception that I'm a bit crabby, lends me to believe you may be a bit, today.<G> (Or at least a bit hypersensitive, today.) Best Regards Joe Garrett, RPT, (Oregon) Been There, Didn't Like It, So I'm Here To Stay! [G}
