modules
I'm at the point where I'm working on the fiberglass air plenums around the
cylinders. I have half in round 6061-T6 to make the tubes. How in the
world do I bend the tubes as pictured on the JabiruUSA web site? All the
tube benders I can find only bend up to 3 eights inch tubing.

Pack them full of sand, plug the ends with corks or duct tape and bend them
around a block of wood with a somewhat smaller radius then the target radius
to allow for spring-back. Leave the tubes long during bending to give
yourself something to grasp and then cut to length. The sand keeps them from
collapsing.

Jeff,
Since I'm one of the owners of an older 3300 and don't know what JAB
calls for now in innovative tubing bends, can only suggest you take your
half-inch aluminum tubing to a friendly electrical firm, (the smaller
the better might work) and ask them to work some contortions into your
tubing with a conduit bender.
Might be a way...jeff small
