I'm thinking of using plain masking tape for the first try, but may use fiber reinforced tape if the regular stuff doesn't hold up. I should have the set up ready to try soon and will definitely update with the results. And as far as consistency goes, I like it too :)Randy Dormanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17744079460214782506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029286451235941164.post-70495886594663659372012-04-17T16:17:39.737-07:002012-04-17T16:17:39.737-07:00It's a cool idea, but I don't expect the t...It's a cool idea, but I don't expect the tape will hold shape that well against a viscous fluid. At best it will want to be a semicircle between the posts; at worst there will be large variation in the shape through the engine.<br /><br />It'd probably still fire ok, though. But if you're doing it as a concept for SS2S, Richard seems the type to really like consistency.Ben Brockerthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07288306199282855324noreply@blogger.com
