Patterns & Sheet Alum |
|
|
Started working on my 12' long .032 sheets. Have patterns for numerous ribs and misc pieces. Also began laying out the long wing spar pieces (W10-01). Started to rough cut as in picture #3 here, but realized that the Wiss snips can't make "inside" cuts like this. After a few inches the snips are too fat to fit. So I'm going to try the Olfa knife method (using a heavy duty Olfa knife to score thru the aluminum), and then use the snips to cut off the edges, down to the layout lines. |
