Brad,
If you going to mend your sails as a temporary fix, first place sail repair  
tape (sticky stuff) over the areas to be sewn. It makes this type of repair  
easier to do and it will last longer.

Rummy,

Yeah, and you're an a-hole! Make yourself useful and find  me a Heim rod end
bearing HMX5FG.  Beech only wants $156 - Aircraft  Spruce has a 5G for $51
but it doesn't have the flush lubricant port. Its  gotta be a Heim brand, no
equivilents, the FAA gods said so. I've tried  locally and on the net and
can't find one.  I gotta go fly today to  pay for all this crap!  I've
decided to sew my mainsail on the  CoraShen back together for one more season
to help pay for the other  toys.  It isn't a big deal if I can't find this
bearing, it's just a  small part that makes the wheel "thingies" go up  and
down.
