Moneybox Posted January 20 Posted January 20 I've never seen that type of starter. The father-in-law always had a bandaid on one or two fingers. 1

facthunter Posted January 20 Posted January 20 I don't DO Facebook. Starters can Break small engines if they flood. My first engine. A FROG 150 Diesel ruined the fingers of Both hands before I mastered it. I didn't KNOW anyone else with engines. I designed and built my Own Control line Plane. IT didn't last very Long either, before it bit the dust. Not easy times. I was about 12. Nev 3 1
ClintonB Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Rich peoples stuff when I was doing rc. spring starter 0.049 was brilliant for finger chops. Stupid me stuck fingers through prop to take glo lead off one time. About 15 good nicks that bleed like a bar stare when I bent them to look. 1
