    Why most metal fittings do not fit after bring made is largely do to the incorrect bend allowance for a given thickness when laid out in the flat. Also the I found that if you copy the fittings from the drawing you will find fit errors. I have started a 3D CAD Model of the Pietenpol for a full set of highly detailed plans, down to the fittings in the flat. Set to be finished end of this year. -------- Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=347371#347371

    as for the oil pressure I'm pretty sure you would be losing a fair amount if the hole is left open. why could you not make a stub shaft or eve a hollow tube-the diameter of the old shaft welded to the cover plate just long enough to fill the bushing and stop that loss?

    Jerry, It looks great. Keep up the good work. I'll be out of touch for three weeks. I'll be on an RV trip. No, not a plane, a 5th wheel. I'll catch up on all the news when I return.

    Hi womenfly2.....yes I agree with what your saying and look forward to seeing what you came up with. Surely if someone could make the metal parts in bulk it would have to be cheaper as you would get a better deal when buying materials in bulk. Obviously labour is added to that but someone like me who is time poor due to family commitments, I would rather buy these parts ready made and get flying sooner than struggle through wasting time sourcing materials and doing it etc. Its a fine line and judging by other responses here, im not the only one. Even supplying the parts flat and undrilled so each individual can bend and drill what needs bending and drilling to fit their own project. As an example, the prices I obtained for 4130N are as much as $45 a sq/foot here in Australia. How does that compare with the USA?
