I have had a set of Bob Harrison's torque tube clamp's fitted for three
years and 300 hours and there isn't any movement
in the pins and i know i can easily remove the tube for maintenance if
necessary,
I am very glad that they are more or less a fit and forget feature,
just my two penny's worth!

Here's an error not worth repeating...
After finding what I thought would be adequate space on the panel for
one of those cigar lighter receptacles touted as a power source for
charging an iPad, upon receipt of it from Acft. Spruce (p/n 11-01294),
and finding it a bit bulkier than anticipated, I thought I'd found a
dandy place...namely, a nice flat horizontal area on the CM just
starboard of the raised housing for the throttle, forward of the hand
brake, convenient for pilot or passenger.
Monowheel builders beware! Lurking beneath it is the flap control
rod...something I discovered only AFTER drilling a nice neat 1.125"
dia. hole and attempting to retract the LG.
I do love the forgiving nature and repairability of FG composites...
(sigh).

Rowland,
Pat Tunny's clamps are the way to go for my build. I did not need to drill
the white nylon bush, as it may take a few attempts and in doing so you run
the risk of making the TT holes bigger and this is where the unwanted movement
is started. With Pat's clamps you set up the whole thing in one go, that includes
the brass bushes too. then your dun. NO DRILLING. Easy and solid.
