Man that's cold . It also perfectly explains your signature .
I better not upset you by telling you it was a nice warm 28 degrees c (whatever that is in fareheight) here today and I had several nice flys    , oops




I'm never wrong, once I thought I was but I was mistaken.

28C = +82.4F
which doesn't exist in Alaska

There is no folding or hot water involved, post a photo of the part and
I will tell you what to do.

Snappy,
i find out what is happening....... there are no air scoops in the kit!!!
I think they forgot to pack it.
I have to contact HK and hope that they can send it in a couple of weeks and not month. Or do you have a better idea?

If you are going electric I would be tempted to use stiff card painted
black or for IC engine Litho plate or metal from a drinks can.

That would be 82F and no that does not upset me, but it does make me a little jealous.
