Phil Kriley Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I ordered the chapter 13 kit from AS&S and it included a piece of "bush stock" 1015/1020 BUSH STOCK 3/8 X.065 that I ASSUME is to be used to fabricate the NG-14's. The plans don't tell you what to fabricate them from - they just say "fabricate them"... The "bush stock" inside diameter is too narrow for the bolts, so I drilled them out. I hope this is OK - the archives have mention of this, but no answer. If anyone can put my mind at ease, I'd appreciate it! TIA!

Kent Ashton Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I think you have the wrong stock. On the regular manual gear, NG-14s are .5" OD, .125" wall or close to that. They function as spacers. See p. 13-3. Quote -KentCozy IV N13AM-750 hrs, Long-EZ-85 hrs and sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that AS&S's chapter 13 kit has the wrong stuff? 1015/1020 BUSH STOCK 3/8 X.065 3003-0 TUBE 1/4" OD X .032" W 4130 STEEL TUBE 5/8" X .058 are the materials listed in AS&S chapter 13 kit. Can you please tell me what I need to order to have the right material? Quote Phil Kriley Cozy #1460 Chapter 13 - nose Right wing done - working on right winglet.

Richard Schubert Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I used prefabricated circuit board standoffs from MSC. Plated, 1020 steel, and available in various lengths.

Where do you buy those? Radio Shack? TIA! Quote Phil Kriley Cozy #1460 Chapter 13 - nose Right wing done - working on right winglet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Ashton Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Can you please tell me what I need to order to have the right material? AC Spruce carries 6061-T6 tube, .5" OD X .260 ID. That's a good for the manual nose gear. I presume it's the same for the electric gear.

Well I guess I need to take another look in the box. I had no idea they were included in his kit. Thanks! Quote Phil Kriley Cozy #1460 Chapter 13 - nose Right wing done - working on right winglet.

Phil Kriley Posted January 6, 2010 Author Share Posted January 6, 2010 Well I guess I need to take another look in the box. I had no idea they were included in his kit. Thanks! Hallelujah! Jack's kit does indeed include a very nice pair of NG-14's! I would not have found them until after I was done if you had not told me, as they were in the bag with the wire harness and I had not taken it out yet. THANKS!

TMann Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 ...... yeah, ask me how I know about both. I had ordered them from spruce at about the same time I ordered the nose lift.
