Good Day All,
I was wondering if someone might have a template to make the "winglet" instead of bending the tabs on the E 701 L? I'm about to order the E 701 L skin, and all the subsequent parts, for the 3rd time all because of the bending of those 2 little tabs.
Tonight the bottom bend went great, however the top tab not so great, too the point where I need to order a new skin. If I try to drill all the stifferners out I'll just end up enlarging the holes on the stifferners and will need to put OOPs rivets in instead of the 426 3-3.5 rivets.
I'm finding this part very frustrating so I think I would like to go with the "winglet" vice the bending, this time around. Even better would be for someone to make me a "winglet"
If you have a template that I can use could you please pass it along? I have enough scrap metal lying around that it won't be an issue to make one. In fact I have 2 left elevator skins that I can use as scrap ![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
As always, thanks for the continued help.
Cheers
Chris
