Hey guys
What size tubing did you guys use for the diagonal struts running from the
top engine mounts to the top of the front cabanes? Did you smash and weld
the ends?
Thanks

Hey Rick,
I've been working on those struts for a while now, because I'm at a
stumbling block on how to do the upper end. I'm using 5/8" X .065" wall for
the
tubing. I didn't smash the tube at either end. I terminated the lower end
with a piece of 7/16" X .065 wall (perpendicular to strut) that is reamed for
the 5/16" bolt, then did a wrap around and up the tube kind of finger patch,
made from .063" flat 4130 steel. Just today I made a cardboard templet for
the upper end, that terminates at the upper bolt for the cabane struts. I've
got to do that end a little different. I am good with the outboard .063" strap,
but I don't like how I'll have to do the inboard strap, because of the 'X'
cables in front of the front windshield. I will have to make a pretty big notch
in that strap, because of the little bracket that the fwd 'X' cables attach
to....Any ideas on how I can make that inboard strap at the upper end ??
I already made and installed a bushing on the floor for the front seat
belt extension, so I can take my Fat buddies up for a ride...

The diagonals on NX18235 are 3/4 X .035 with an adjustable, threaded
fitting at the top. Bottom is attached similar to the way Chuck G. has
described.

Rick, I am using J3 struts and I am going to use the leftover for the
front cabane struts. They will fit between the fittings and bolted in.
At the top end I will weld in adjustable strut forks in case I have to
tilt the wing back for weight and balance. I think I read somewhere
that you are in Castle Rock Co. If so, I would like to call you when I
visit my son in Colorado Springs. I am building my Piet in Lagrange Ga.
, and I live in Atlanta, Ga. I am about 60 percent done after a year and
a half. Gardiner Mason
