tools getting out of hand!
OK, I know everything in aircraft engineering is different and never what it seems. I have spent a small fortune on number drills, air tools, torque wrenches with ridiculously small ratings, cable tension and crimp gauges not to mention riveters.
Then there are the rivets,wire,switches, instruments and incidentals...
None of this stuff is available in Australia, it all has to come from the USA.
Which brings me to the subject of wire crimping. I now have about five crimpers.
....but I now find one electrical connector that requires three terminals and the crimper and dies sell for about $2000.00!
I think I Am going bush mechanic or solder. Does anyone know of an electrical LAME who will even talk to a builder?
