    Why become a Subscribing Member?

    • In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.
    • We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).
    • Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Jerry Rigged Jig

The 7/8ths inch tubing wanted to lift off of the table while I was bending it. Being the resourceful guy that I am I took two pieces of 7/8th inch tubing, spanned it with the straightest thing I had in my shop (a 4 foot level), took two pieces of plywood and screwed them down over top of the level to hold it down. As you can see, I slid the tubing I was working on underneath of the jig I made. No lifting, problem solved. Not pretty... but I'm not here to make nice looking jigs.
