Thin sheet aluminum parts

I drew up the 0.04" and 0.063" thick aluminum parts and with a little help from my buddy Tony we machined them on one of the CNC routers at work.  I brought them home and deburred the sharp edges and then bent the tabs on the mounting brackets for the aileron / rudder idler puppies.  To finish off the night, I rough cut the pieces that are made out of equal leg angle extrusion.  It doesn't sound like much when you write it down but it was a fair amount of work.



Number of hours:  4.5
