My new wide body 24 1/2 mount is completed by WW. He made a second while he had the jig set up and will have it at Sun-n-Fun if anyone is interested. It is listed here. http://www.flycorvair.com/products.html, it is part number 4201C.I elected to take delivery of my mount at Brodhead but if anyone in the Dayton,OH area is traveling to Sun n Fun and can bring it back to Ohio, I would be grateful.John--------John FrancisRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Steel-tube fuselage update - Major Welding Completed...!
Pietenpol-List: Steel-tube fuselage update - Major Welding Completed...!
Original Posted By: "Barry Davis"
Hello good Piet-ple,Well, with one more full day of welding behind me I can report that the major fuselagestructure is complete.....!!!! Now there is still a LOT more to go, withtabs, cable guides, more tabs, a few more things like the tailwheel springfittings, more tabs.... however, the MAJOR structure is welded. (insert smilehere...!)You can see the "extra" cross piece at both wing strut attach fitting locations.As I have said in other posts, this is not the ideal solution but the two tubesshould add enough strength in those areas to work just fine.Glad to be enjoying this adventure. I appreciate the connection to many of youon this list that are on a similar journey - and those who have completed a Pietenpoland are enjoying the FLYING phase of your adventure...!!Jake--------Jake Schultz - curator,Newport Way Air Museum (OK, it's just my home)Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/_fus ... __________
