Fellows:Just started to make fittings for Aircamper.I'd like to make all of this ship with simple tools at hand. Anybody got ideas,reccommendations, or references to construct the Joggled Strap (drawing 100-20,pg.6)? Looks like it can't be hammered.Alan________________________________________________________________________________

a couple ways to do that strap. 1. don't joggle it - just let it flex up away from the fuse as it meets the fusefitting2. make the joggle less drastic. more of a lengthened "Z" bend than a joggle3. cut the stap a little short and then weld a separate piece on each end overlappedon the strap to create a joggle.I'm going to use method #2 on my GN-1.DJ Veghwww.imagedv.com/aircamperN74DVMesa, AZ ----- Original Message -----

a joggle is a metalworking term. where you make 2 90=B0 bends very close to eachother to form a "lip"here's a pic showing a joggle being made with a forming block and hammerwww.imagedv.com/aircamper/joggle.jpgThere is a strap that goes underneath the GN-1 fuse that connects the left wingstrut fitting to the right one.DJ ----- Original Message -----
