Pietenpol-List: Elevator Control Horn Bending

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: Jeff Boatright
Any pics for a jig to bend the edges of the elev control horns, accurately? I'vegot the standard two blocks of wood, which is always the most fun. Just wonderingif a bead roller is necessary to obtain a more accurate bend for welding?Thanks,Steve--------Stevewww.mypiet.comRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2010 17:04:42 -0500

Mike C.PS-- I dug thru the metal dumpster here to steal Mike P's reject horns-----theywere nicer than the ones I put on my plane.________________________________________________________________________________Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:00:57 -0400
