As you are probably unaware, my name was in there as having "wrote"
something on your most recent post,

Sort of.

but not one word on your post came from
any of my posts. I don't like (mostly on principle)
being quoted when there
is nothing there I said.

A reader can figure that out by counting the "..."


I think you will understand, and will try harder, next time. :-)

Yes, you're right, I should be more careful.

Well my method WORKS, AND WORKS GOOD, & I can show you pics of my Stabilizer to prove it.

Jerry's method was -
---------------------------------------------
--I bent some of the same tube by filling it with sand, bending it
around a 10" pulley that had been turned out inside to 3/8"
radius--Pulling it around with the inner race of a big ball brg that
had
used 3/4" balls--this was pressed onto a smaller brg which was bolted
to
a bar that pivoted on the center support of the pulley. BUT--
that's a 5" radius & you want 3"---might do it though..send ya a pic
if
your interested. wass biplane at tds dot net

So, it was almost a homebrewed commercial bender, it sounds like.

Yeah, I just happened to have the parts & a lathe--so it wasn't too much
effort---BTW the radius was more like 4" rather than the 5" I first
recalled--(two-groove pulley, used smaller one.)
