Brief Description:  Elevator Belcrank Part 2

I got a few more hours in the shop this evening. I match-drilled the 3/16ths holes in the belcrank and cleaned them up. I then got all the tubing bits together for the pivot. Since this was all .058 tubing, I elected to cut the rings on the lathe with a parting tool. .049 is my limit with a tubing cutter and even that requires some cleanup of the cut before it can be used. One other thing I did was fit the T9 mount tubes to the pivot tube before I cut them off the section of tubing. It's much easier to hold a 3ft piece and cope the end than a 1in piece! I formed one end, cut that off, then formed the second and cut that off...worked slick.
