    Subject: Re: .020" aluminum leading edge
    DJ Ours came out really simple. Harold, one of our builders, made a jig out of 2x6 scrap. He sanded the edge to match the leading edge then adjusted the 2x2's as needed. We used 2 pieces overlapped like a J3 Cub so they were not too long to handle. I included a rough sketch to give you the idea of how the jig looks. We used gutter coil for the aluminum, because we got it for free, just cut it with a straight edge and a box cutter. Experiment with some 1' pieces to get the edge distance required then go for it. Check the picture, a couple of smacks with the big hammer and it is done. We could bend all 24 in about an hour. Check the picture, the leading edge is dead-on.

I have been updating my operations manual with test data, is it necessery to keep an detailed flight summary for the record? Dick
