Has anyone made the control horns from a single heavier 4130 (like maybe1/8) or would they bend too easily? Mark________________________________________________________________________________

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: control hornsI believe the control horns Replicraft was making were solid steel.Heavier and probably not as stiff as the built up ones.I paniced when I looked at the Piet horns about a year ago too. Butonce you get the hang of it they're almost fun to make.Light and extremely strong. Ed G. ________________________________________________________________________________
