You can also purchase a printed set here https://mountainrideaviation.com/products/pushrod-jig-for-rv-10-rv-14
"Efficiently create perfect pushrods with our innovative drilling jigs. Unlike the traditional method of using paper templates, our jigs offer a superior, precise approach. Simply follow these steps for optimal results:
1. Preparation: Attach the jig to a full-length tube before cutting.
2. Alignment: Ensure the tube is square. If needed, use sanding blocks against the jig for adjustments.
3. Initial Drilling: With the pushrod end inserted, drill holes using a #30 size bit, guided by the jig. Add clecos progressively.
4. Marking for Reassembly: After removing the jig, mark both the pushrod end and the tube to aid in later reassembly.
5. Secondary Drilling Setup: Place a second jig at the appropriate distance on the tube. Drill two #40 size holes and secure with clecos.
6. Cutting: Use a bandsaw to cut the tube, leaving an extra 1/32 inch beyond the jig.
7. Finishing the Edge: Achieve a flush finish by sanding the tube end to align with the jig.
8. Final Drilling: Insert the pushrod end and complete drilling all #30 holes, securing each with a cleco.
9. Final Marking: Remove the jig and mark both the pushrod end and tube for easy reassembly later.
By following these steps with our jigs, you'll achieve precision and efficiency, making your pushrod construction process smoother and more accurate."
