If I was building or repairing a set of floats I'd first buy Wayne's
CD of how to do it. I'm still waiting for his fuselage CD to be finished.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Some of you will remember that the floats for FOKM were damaged nearly 2
years ago and have been in repairs since. The chap doing the repairs is
at the spray rail stage and considers the amount of bending and
stretching of the material provided by Murphy to get to the compound
curve to be excessive and beyond any reasonable requirement. He also
says that more recent designs have the spray rails vertical, keeping the
spray more confined than the originals would.
1. Does anyone have comment on the amount of work to make these fit and
the tools etc required to get them there? How was it handled on float
kits that people have built? We don't have the instruction manual for them.
2. Does anyone have comment on the vertical rail suggestion?
