like a tiger moth,and some other mods.

where they are?
Thanks

| Subject: | easy beaded cowling edge |
Just finished my cowling (Ford) and when I sat back to admire it, really
felt the need for a nice rolled or beaded edge to give the various cutouts
that nice finished look. Not having the tooling or expertise to do a true
rolled edge, I came up with this idea. I'm sure it's not new, but it was
new to me and I'm really pleased with it.
Get some soft 1/4" aluminum tubing from the plumbing dept at your local
hardware store. Straighten it really well and put a slice down one side
with a cutting disc in an angle grinder. Open the slice a bit with a
screwdriver and slide it over your cowling edge and
bend/shape/form/straighten until it fits perfectly. Remove, deburr it a bit
and inject some epoxy in the slot, reinstall and crimp with a padded channel
lock or something.
Was surprisingly quick, cheap, light and how that it's painted, it is my
favorite part of the whole cowling.
Douwe

that is an interesting method for sure.as you probably saw I'm trying to get started
on mine and wanted some tips.I don't know if the vibration would loosen
that edge or not but it is a clean looking edge I'm sure.I hope we'll get some
feedback if anyone had done it that way about how it held up. thanks for the
tip.Raymond

I am wondering what you that have made air scoops for the Corvair used and how
you shaped the front edge of them. I would like to have either a beaded edge or
something to stiffen it.anyway any tips or pictures would be helpful.Raymond
