Locating Bend Lines And Factoring Material Thickness

Welcome back fellow aircraft builders and aviation enthusiasts! This video replaces my old video on "Accounting for Materials Thickness." Zenith generally does not locate bend lines for you, because all manufacturing methods have an effect on bend line placement. In this video, I detail how to account for material thickness and bend line placement in the blueprints, while accommodating your own production methods.
Thanks for watching, and check out my blog at gregsplane.blogspot.com to follow my progress!

I have been very unimpressed with Zeniths plans as I have progressed through my 650 build. Lots errors, ambiguites, lack of datums, etc. One thing I have found useful in my construction is not worry so much about flange dimensions as the web dimensions. If the lflange comes out a little long I can trim it if necessary. If the web is off, I have to remake the part.

Where the hell were you last year?? do you know how long it took me to figure those darn bend lines...the number of parts I scrapped....lol When I see those bend line.....i always check, double check and triple check before bending and I do the same ...I take note of the bend directions that i used for reference.

Just ordered my plans. My drive to pick up materials will be about 5 hours to Spokane from Montana where I live. Is there anyway you can give me a materials list as far as the Aluminum
