This question refers to page 25-3 step 6, where it calls for
final-drilling to .311 in the gear leg socket. I am not sure what size
drill bit or reamer to use here. What do i need to order? What have
others used? At least on avery's site, i do not see a .311 drill bit.
What i see for choices are:

1. 5/16" drill bit (0.312) - probably not precise enough for an AN5 bolt
in the future.
2. 5/16" reamer (0.3125) - seems like this would be perfect for the AN5
bolt.
2. 5/16" undersize reamer which advertised as .311 on avery's site.

Reamers catalog page is here:
http://www.averytools.com/cart/pc-535-29-chucking-reamers--high-speed-steel.aspx

Any hints here will be greatly appreciated!

Also, since I'll be placing an order, i figure i should get another
microstop countersink cage. Do you guys have a preference for whether
the needle bearing or the bronze bushing versions are preferred?

Avery sells a 7.9mm ream that meets this requirement, but it is 6 inches
long so you will need a 90 degree drill to use it, not the threaded one
Avery sells, rather an adapter for your standard electric drill.
Get the washer tool while you are at it, makes mounting washers much
easier.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Also, I also took a shot at calling Van's
to ask them. Considering that almost everyone is at SnF, i was amazed
that I got a hold of someone for tech support, late Friday.

After a bit of initial confusion, I was told that in his revision 2
(dated Sep 2006), the step i refer to below, pg 25-3 step 6, is no
longer there. My revision is 1 (dated 9/3/04). However, in his revision,
final drilling the gear mount hole for AN5 is in Section 46, a ways
away. In there, there was a note for avery part # 15358, which is the
5/16 undersized reamer that i mention below.

Finally, I asked how i could get the new revisions. i was surprised by
his response. basically, there is no way to get new revisions. He
recommended using the plans i got with the parts; otherwise, there would
be too much confusion if the diagrams and plans did not exactly
correlate with the parts given. I guess i could order the plans as a
separate item and hope it included all the latest revisions. however, it
was clear it was not recommended.

Wow, those washer wreches are not cheap!

Glad to know that Van's is making revisions to the plans. Wonder what else
was changed?

They were posting revisions here: http://www.vansaircraft.com/public/notices.htm
They don't show the revision you're referring to though.

Part Number 15358 is an Avery Chucking Reamer in .3115 (undersize 5/16)
$18.00. We need to support Avery more than McMaster so I try to buy from
them. Their new catalog has a lot of hard to find stuff.
