 |

Are there any of the flying RV-10 builders that would like to sell their 7.9 MM ream?

John,
I won't sell it but you are welcome to use it for as long as you need it.
Just promise to pass it along to the next builder. Send me your mailing
address.

On this subject, how many have reamed the landing gear holes rather than drilled them? I reamed the mounts to 7.9mm so I have the reamer. But the actual landing gear itself is one hunk o' steel. Is it difficult to ream?
cheers
Ron

I reamed mine. It seemed simpler than drilling. I ground the upper "steps" of the reamer and threaded it into the hole from the outboard (opposite) side of the hole. I then chucked it into the drill and pulled it through the hole. Drilling the hole just did not seem too humane!

The gear leg itself doesn’t need to be reamed, just the holes in the support bracket. We reamed, although I believe with a 5/16 reamer, or whatever Van’s says is “fine” instead of the 7.9mm.

I think this is one of the topics that gets more discussion than it
probably warrants. I just completed this step, and had a LOT of angst
prior to doing so. I ordered the 7.9mm DRILL bit from Mcmaster Carr
(having forgotten the advice to use a reamer). the day came to
drill/ream the holes and I debated about delaying and ordering a reamer.
Well I pressed ahead and found out the the Drill bit worked just fine.
It turns out that there is not a lot of material that gets removed in
the process, and the 7.9mm drill bit seemed to do the job just fine,
took very little time and produced excellent results.

You won’t be reaming the gear. It is way too hard. You reem just the hole in the weldment. Randy 40006

Yep, rechecked the plans which clearly state to insert a drill into the mount and leg until it bottoms on the undrilled part of the mount. The 7.9 mm reamer should be no problem.
cheers,
Ron
