Hey guys!

If you're into doing as much (legal) maintenance as I am on your plane, please have a look at my custom spark plug trays. Check out my website too and feel free to ask questions.

Thanks and happy wrenching!

Nate / Buster

They're gonna soak up that engine oil like a sponge.
 
Hey guys, thanks for looking. Check out my webpage to see a lot of examples.

I do have to say, that with the poly coat, they dont soak up much of anything! Mine has been holding up pretty well and I have reports from a few guys that they just wipe them down when done and put it back on the shelf.

We're also begining to design some for radial engines too!

Thanks again!
 
You've got some tough competition out there Buster.

Here is a Six Plug Tray that apparently comes with six extra free holes:

and here is an Eighteen Plug Tray that apparently has six secret hidden holes:

We use wood trays and holders like this all the time at work to hold oily parts. I don't think they were coated with anything but they seem to reach a certain point of saturation then it doesn't matter anymore.

Tough competition?????????

You'd pay $139 for a tray???????

I'll get you a custom one, to your doorstep for the price of 7 gallons of 100LL ($45). Less of you order more trays.

If that's competition, bring it! :idea:
 
Neat idea but I already made my own with some aluminum and a few rivets.

You're not catching the joke are you. Read it again and look at the pictures.
 
I see the joke, the trays are labeled wrong WRT the holes.

I was merely commenting on the costs of said trays. That was my purpose actually for why I began this small business in the first place. I can buy a tray for my car for $29.99 at Auto Zone...Just cause it's aviation related, basically the same thing is marked way up!!??:yikes:

I hate that.
 
I have some scraps of 2X4's with holes drilled in them
 
Now making radial engine 7 and 9 cylinder trays. Please check out the website, and thanks again!
