 Posted: Sun Dec 09, 2007 8:35 am Post subject: F697 thickness? (hat section in front deck structure) |
 |
|
Any -7 tipup builders out there that just received their finish kit?
I'm working on the front deck of the fuse & I'd like to fit the F-643-1 center channel, but it butts against a flange of the F697 hat section & this piece is included in the finish kit, not the fuse kit.
Can someone measure the material thickness of the F697 for me?
Thanks,
Charlie

Had the same issue. If you look at the miniature drawings in the back of the construction manual there is a drawing showing the part with sizes ( I THINK its page 41). I went ahead and ordered this part by itself its about $ 9.00 whilst I am waiting for my finish kit.

Be careful about installing it now. It turns out there some reasons it ships with the finishing kit. I can't exactly remember what they are now (of course), but there are nutplates that need to be installed, cutouts thta need to be made.. that require the rest of the tip-up release parts in place etc. I stuck mine on there early, then had to drill it out.

Thanks for the warning, but I don't intend to rivet anything yet. I just want to drill the F643-1 to the top skin & fit/drill the angle that ties it to the firewall, before I disassemble all that structure between the instrument panel & firewall. I just want to make a temporary shim the same thickness as the F697's flange so the F643-1 will be properly positioned before I drill it to the skin.
