Air Throttle How-To

I recently converted my King Control throttle to an air throttle. I based my approach on the way Foretravel did it back in the days when they were replacing failing King units. Everything can be bought off the shelf except for some brackets which I had fabricated using several old Foretravel drawings.

No special skills or tools are needed and anyone with moderate mechanical skills will be able to do the job. As I said above, I did mine like Foretravel used to. If someone else has a better or less expensive solution, please chime in. Also, if anyone comes across something in the how-to that needs clarification, let me know. Thanks.

Anyone who uses these instructions might think about asking Jor for his Paypal information.  Just sayin.'

Jor,

If you haven't done it already, how about posting your excellent How-To file in the Forum library.  It might go good in the "Air System" folder?

Where is the "Forum library" being referred to here? Does it have another name? How do I access it?
