I haven't yet dealt with a misfire like that pictured below, but for a less
severe one, I squeezed the unsightly dimple area back to flat and redimpled.
If the resulting hole seemed slightly larger, I try using a half-size longer
rivet to allow for more expansion and still get a decent size shophead.

Wow, 1600 bucks? That's 40% of the premium for the quickbuild option on the
wings. I've already ordered the slowbuild wings. I'm glad if that's the
price. Now all temptation to avoid pro-seal is averted for me. ;>

I'm considering sending my fuel tanks out to be done. Since i'm building
the slow wings any help with speeding the process can't hurt and with all
I've read about pro-seal, well let's just say I wasn't looking forward to
it. Does anyone know where I can get this done? I read on Van's site that
they do -9 wings for about $1,600./pair but did not see anything about the
-7. I checked out Evan's site and it looks promising. Are there any other
options? Does anyone have experience with Evan's. Thanks for any help.

Van's is getting out of the tank business unless you are purchasing QB wings.
I believe they have even been removed from the latest order sheet.
Evans built Van's tanks for a long time... I would use Evans.

I would drill and dimple new hole and abandon that one. Then just ue filler
in that hole.
And, trust me, you're not the first one to make this mistake.

Norm, I did the same thing on my HS. I smacked the booboo flat and re-dimpled.
After everything was done, you can hardly tell.

The plans call for a section of the counterbalance to be cut out. It was
fun enough just drilling holes in lead. My bandsaw wasn't enjoying the job
too much, but I suppose it'll work if I keep at it. But I wonder if there
is an easier way... Any tips on the best tools for cutting out a section of
lead and then shaping a radius into a corner?
