 Posted: Sun Mar 25, 2007 2:12 pm Post subject: RV-7 tipup F768A,Bl,Br subpanel bends |
 |
|
I'm clecoing the structure between the instrument panel & firewall. It's
obvious that there should be a bend in F768 (also the firewall) but I
can't find any notes on the plans or the instructions on the bend line
or angle.
Does Van expect the natural curve to take care of things, or am I
missing the bend info in the plans?
Thanks,
Charlie

Charlie,
I never found a callout for a bend. Dwg 24A Section A-A shows the angle -
but no callout. I just clecoed (and eventually riveted) everything and let
that bend the parts. Same for the firewall.

In the RV-6 plans, the instructions were to clamp a board on both sides of
the firewall along the top of the bend line and use the boards as a brake to
make the bend. Properly done, you can get a nice crease along a straight
line.
