Rear Landing Gear Fitting - Sta. 45

Post by dougm »

Curious how others have made this. I was hoping to find square or rectangular tubing with an id of 1.125 and a wall thickness of .125 to cut these out of. Has anyone done that or did you have to bend them out of .125 sheet?

If you bent them did you use heat or bend it cold?
