    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.

My fuselage previously had a full floor. Has to go-weight is the enemy! Can I safely grind them flush to the tubing without affecting the strength, or should I just cut them off close to the tubing? My very limited welding experience is 1/4 plate on farm equipment. Not much use here!
