Default Rudder Pedals

Are the rudder pedals prepunched and what is the thickness of the pedals.
Thinking about making custom polished pedals. Tail number instead of holes.

Thanks,

Bruce,

If you're referring to the actual pedals and the many lightening holes in them, then YES - they are pre-punched. The "frame" of angle and the attach point for the pivot is not.

Check Online Metals. Their prices aren't too bad and there isn't usually a cut charge.

You might also try www.metalexpress.com

They have a location at:

5532 Midway Road Suite 4
Haltom City, TX 76117 Phone:
1-817-834-7775

that usually carries aluminum, and generally pretty competitive.
