I really like the idea of keeping a plywood template. What I've done to add to
the windshield is to mask off about a 1 inch edge along the inside of the windshield
and door windows. Then spray flat black paint in order to give a clean
sharp edge. Looks great!

I am getting ready to replace the oil hose from the cooler to the pump on my
912 because of a short radius bent that has been bothering me for a while.
What is the best hose to use for that? Also, can the hoses be inverted on
the cooler? In other words, is there an in and out ports or I can connect
the hose from the pump in any end of the cooler and connect the hose from
the tank in the other port?
Thanks listers

Jack,
I solved that issue on my first Model IV when a friend gave me a length
of Stainless Steel spring that I ran inside the tube to keep the walls
from collapsing. Later after a question like yours no one seemed able
to find the spring, so I did a little experimenting and found that if
you wound a bit of the .032 or .041 SS safety wire around a mandrel you
can essentially build a spring that you can put into the tube. I just
tried it again and would suggest that you try different size rods to see
what just fits in the tube. You could also use the shank of a drill bit
to get finer size graduations - a lathe sure helps.
Once wound, stretch the wire coils out a bit to give more length and run
it into the tube to the vulnerable bend area. Once under tension from
the bend, it won't move.
