Working on strut ends. Thinking fill these in with Hysol/JB Weld and drill to appropriate size.

Strut connector work tonight. Test fitting, test ideas.......

 

[dhal22]

Slipped a wooden dowel in a brass tube for a test strut. I will tape the 2 together once I get closer.

Wing strut brackets need to be stream lined so Amazon sent me a lifetime supply in a matter of hours.

Here are the ends of the struts on the BUSA Super Cub I built some time ago. I don't remember for sure but I think the brass pins are peened to hold in place, I would image these were assembled with epoxy as well. The date of the photo is 2007, might just finish it someday? Photo quality is poor, it is amazing the quality of photos an Iphone takes today.

 

[TonyHallo]

Is that KS tube or something else?
