    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.

Ph - 0064 21 116 1965 (this is a mobile number so email is probably easier, already has country code attached)


Here are the specs of what he provides;


Flying wires - Carbon steel or Stainless Steel to AN(671-676) or AGS (320-326)
Tie Rods - Carbon or Stainless AN(701-706) or AGS (307-313)
Clevis fittings - Carbon or Stainless to AN665, BS SP3 or AGS spec.


He can also do testing and recerts for older assemblies.


Russ is a New Zealander who has spent a lot of his life in the US, he is a real aviation enthusiast and has many aircraft himself from a couple of Travel Air's through to Stampe's and a Beech 18. He has spent considerable time and money to develop this tooling with no real intention of recouping that cost, he just wanted to make available another option for folks as he could see that there was potential for the likes of Bruntons to stop manufacturing due to low demand and increasing overheads.


Hope that helps, I would be interested to here from anyone that contacts Russ for a quote against Bruntons as I have not heard his pricing in comparison.
