 Posted: Wed Jun 24, 2009 5:21 am Post subject: Cowl knuckles - are fabrication directions missing from plan |
 |
|
I'm assembling the engine cowl hinges and pins. On page 47-8 they
describe how the hinge Cowl 10-03 are fabricated and installed.
The front of the pin is retained by a "knuckle". I assume this knuckle
is fabricated from a piece of the hinge material and that the pin is
bent and cut flush with the knuckle. However, there are no specific
directions on fabricating the knuckle. Nor does it seem to be a part in
the BOM.
It looks straight forward enough but the directions have been so
detailed and complete through this section, I'm surprised by the
omission... or am I missing something?
BTW, I see David McNeil suggests cutting the hinge pin long enough to
extend through the knuckle so that it can be bent over the edge of the
bottom cowl just as it is on the Glastar. Comments welcome here.
Thanks in advance

Vans sells some pre-made hinge pins. I just bought them.

At this point EVERYTHING takes at least 40 hours
