Tow bar...
I'd like to build a tow bar. I have the lugs bolted to the nose gear but no bar... any pics of what your using?

Not a photo but, for the time being, I took a door hinge, removed the pin and bolted one side to the nosewheel and the other side to a piece of conduit. Insert the pin to connect it, position the airplane, then pull the pin. It works great for just a few dollars. I plan to put a bend in the conduit to make a handle, and to rig a spring to pull the pin back with a lever. I'm in no hurry because it is working great the way it is.
