Tom,I don't mean to sound argumentative, and you undoubtedly know more aboutwelding than I, but, if you are adverse to sandwiching two pieces of metalby edge welding, how would you address the gear-wing strut fittings?Spar-cabane fittings?Gary Boothe

Tom,If you don't need 4130 for the tabs and can use 1018 which is what I think BP used you might try Speedy Metals http://www.speedymetals.com/c-8213-1018 ... agenum=4.I have ordered from them and got good service fir special shapes in small quantities.--------Jon Coxwell GN-1 BuilderRecycle and preserve the planetRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Sat, 13 Nov 2010 00:02:25 -0800
