Hi All
 
I am looking for forms and any other building tools from a scratch builder that will help me build a 701.  I currently need a firewall and instrument panel form. So anyone that has completed their 701 and had no use for their old tooling and would like to help me out it would be appreciated.  I will buy, rent, or make any arrangements needed to get some tooling to build my 701.
 
Thank you

Hi Rick, I might suggest that you use a circle
cutter. I have used it to cut lighning holes in my
spar. For your smaller holes in the panel you can
use

I found when I was cutting my lightening holes that if I sandwiched the
aluminum between the form halves, and clamped them tightly, that I got very
good results from using ordinary hole cutters.I find them much easier to use
than the circle cutters which usually ( in my experience) have to be used in
a drill press. The larger size hole cutters aren't cheap but worked better
for me.. Others have found routers etc. better. I would suggest trying
various ways out on scrap and deciding which works best for you by
experience.
