I put some photos on my site showing an Aeronca Chief wing I'm working on.Notice all the drag rods (Wire) are threaded on both ends. They're made of1020 Mild Steel. Some bays use clevis tie rod ends and some go through thespar and use an aluminum block to straighten out the compression angle. Ablock of wood will do the trick too. No turnbuckles, but you can use themif you want the extra weight and expense. I hope this helps out.Check out http://members.home.net/copinfo/drag1.jpg http://members.home.net/copinfo/drag2.jpg http://members.home.net/copinfo/drag3.jpg http://members.home.net/copinfo/drag4.jpg http://members.home.net/copinfo/drag5.j ... ome.comTim CunninghamDes Moines, Iowa (515) 237-1510________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sun, 02 Jan 2000 09:27:34 -0600
