| Subject: | Making control horns |
When welding the edges of two pieces, how do you make it so the part is 1/4" thick?
The diagrams, and builder photos, show control horns as having space between
the two pieces.
Thank you,
JC

You have to kinda form the edges to get the thickness. You can tap them over
a pc of metal or some hard wood. Try to make an air foil. It is not an exact
science. Right now I am working on some dies that will stamp these out so
you get a perfect horn. My first attempt was a very nice part. I will post
some pictures soon. Only problem was the air foil was in the wrong
direction. Nice if your flying backwards. Live and learn. If it works out I
will have them for sale.

Thanks. I must have deleted my question while you were responding. I found two
web pages that helped:

You've first got to bend the lending edges to a 1/4" radius, then edge weld
the two pieces. It is fairly simple and the easiest welding you will ever
do.
