Hi all,
1st the disclaimer - I must have been in Homer's Maths class at school - if he was around about 35 years ago !!!!!
I am just starting to bend the fuel vent tubing and need some help with the maths involved - although I expect (know) I will be ordering extra tubing in the near future I would like to minimise the trial and error method.
For example with the 2 x 90? opposite bends on the 7 where they exit the fuselage floor I made the 1st bend out from the fuselage wall and then measured the distance from the wall to overhead the fitting on the floor and subtracted 1" for the bend as a start point for the 2nd 90? - DOH ! it came out about 1/4" short !
I don't even want to think about other bend angles
Help please
