I just installed some hardware for the doors that I think many of you 

will be interested in.



http://deemsrv10.com/45-20.htm



Background : One of the listers (Joe /Zack C. ) designed some hardware 

for his doors after sitting in another RV-10 and experiencing 1st hand 

the issues in closing and insuring the latching of the doors & pins 

(particularly the rear pins). Joe/Zack is fortunate in that his family 

has available engineering and CNC machining skills. He got his brother 

to fabricate a set of this hardware for him, and I got wind of it (I 

think through this list).  Joe/Zack is Dave Czachowrowski's Uncle. Dave 

is the owner/proprietor of Full Throttle concepts aka RIvethead, that 

many of us have got CNC parts from.  I contacted Dave and asked him if 

he'd make a set of the door hardware for me, and he agreed to. (time 

available basis). The hardware replaces the UGLY Delrin blocks that 

attach to the Cabin Door frame. IMHO these are one of the 3-4 truly UGLY 

features of the RV-10. >



Here's some pics of the hardware as it arrived from Dave :

I've installed some modified door latch hardware and so the installation 

required some modifications to work for me, I doubt any would be 

necessary for a standard door latch install. Here's how they look installed:

I have NO  $ interest in this or in Rivethead, I'm just another -10 

builder that appreciates the genius and work of others. THANKS Joe/Zack 

and Dave !!!!!!!! I think it is a Great product that looks good and 

provides a more secure and safer latching situation. I told Dave I 

thought these were outstanding and that I would post my impressions 

after I got them installed. so now you have it.

PS Dave doesn't have these on his Rivethead web site yet.



PPS If you didn't get in on Tim O's amazing Axel Extender purchase you 

should check out these also available from Dave/Rivethead (and the price 

was way reasonable).

Deems,

  

 Are these just prototype units? or are they going to be available to other RV-10 builders at a future dater? I just checked the website http://www.rivethead-aero.com/rv10_005.htm and there isn't a listing.  These look 1000% better than the ones Vans supplys. Thanks for the info.

  

 John
