    Subject: Over-fluting
    From: "Folbrecht, Paul" <PFolbrecht@starkinvestments.com>
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Folbrecht, Paul" <PFolbrecht@starkinvestments.com> Is there really any way to undo over-fluting of a rib? My fluting was going well until I got to R-903 - long, skinny rudder rib. I over-did it and it's now bowed the other way. Drat. I figure anything that could be done now would probably result in fatigued metal anyway. Paul 9A QB 1176

You can gently squeeze some of the flutes with a pair of seaming pliers (two flat plates welded to a pair of vise-grip jaws) or something similar. Heck, even putting the rib on edge on your wooden shop table, and hitting the flute gently with your dead-blow hammer would probably flatten them out adequately. The fluting process doesn't stress the material so much that a little "unbending" will hurt it. Be gentle, and spread the unbending out over the entire rib, and the part will be just fine. -Rob

    From: "Glaeser, Dennis A" <dennis.glaeser@eds.com>
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Glaeser, Dennis A" <dennis.glaeser@eds.com> I've done that, and to un-do it I just turned my fluting pliers at as close to 90 degrees as I could get and squeezed a bit to flatten the flute a bit. Or sandwich the flute between a couple of scraps of metal and squeeze it with pliers (or whatever). It doesn't take much. You'd have to flute and (totally) flatten the same spot more than a couple of times before you have to worry about fatiguing the metal.

I am building a -4, wings and feathers complete, fuse bulkheads are jigged but no drilling yet, I have heard of some traveling helpers that work for so much an hour, I just want enough help to get the thing out of the jig then I think I could continue solo. Can anybody help here? I am in SF bay area, CA, any of you who used these guys care to comment?

    Subject: Re: Over-fluting
    --> RV-List message posted by: Dave Nellis <truflite@yahoo.com> Turn the fluting pliers over putting the center node exactly on the center of the flute it created. Gently squeeze till the reverse bend is gone.

    Subject: Re: Sun-n-Fun Tool Sale!
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Tom Barnes" <skytop@megsinet.net> Builders, I take this opportunity to give an ATA-BOY to Cleveland. One of our (Chicago) local builders became ill and died of cancer shortly after he had purchased Cleveland's complete RV-4 tool package. The tools were vertually unused but over a year old. Cleveland refunded dollar-for-dollar. The old story about not going wrong by dealing with the "A,B,C's" is true again. Please archive!
