Wing tube wanted

Postby Alan Cantwell 1131 » March 22nd, 2018, 3:43 am

I need a wing tube for a Black Horse Corsair, so I can sell it! 25mm diameter, x495mm long, I am working on making one out of Aircraft grade He30, but can’t get machine time at work,

Thanks gentlemen, but I took the bull by the horns, and made one at dinner time, 25 Mm Dian, 19:5 hole through it, turned down, worm drilled out, 18 minutes, start to finish, even had time for lunch, fits well, many thanks,
