I started fabricating the canopy release hinge blocks and release pins. The finish kit supplies a steel tube ST4130-035X3/8X5 3/4 for C-621. The plans on DWG 47 show a length of 5 19/64" between the centers of the two holes for the pins, and those are 1/4" from the ends of the tubing. That adds up to 3/64" more than the 5 3/4" that Van's provides. The other part of the release linkage is another tube that has to be cut down a bit from what is shipped.
What is the story on the missing 3/64", or is that a non-issue? I get worried when the plans start getting down to the 1/64" of an inch in precision. I'm not that precise!![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
