Landing gear

Posted on February 5, 2012 at 7:10pm 4 Comments

Anyone have advice on milling the indents for the aluminum gear? I know about not generating too much heat.

Hi Ralph

   I used a coarse and fine rat tail file to do mine. A rotary file also works well. A little heat on the metal will not affect the alloy.
