Hi fellow RV-builders!
Hi RV-fellow builders!
I live in Norway and am building a RV-7. I've have discovered a GREAT tool for bending soft metal.
It's a kind of a plier who makes EXACTLY 90 degree bends with PERFECT turnradius!
It's IDEAL for the trimtab, the tabs on the left elevator and other parts where you need a bend.
The PERFECT trimtab can be done on FIVE MINUTES! (or maybe even less...)
I've posted pics of the plier in the Photo Share section today, however it'll take a few days until the pics are posted I think.
The pliar was found in a tinsmith shop (tinman).
It's an old tool but SUPERB for the job!
Since it'e here in Norway, it also must be possible to find in the US or other parts of the world.
I've also sent photos to Mr Bob Avery at Avery Tools, and maybe they'll start making the tool?
Happy building (and bending!) builders.
Best regards Alf Olav Frog
