• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

A friend who is building a gorgeous Hatz biplane called and asked if I could make some tips for his javelins. Got on the lathe tonight and started turning four of these. Solid brass, 3/4"Ø, with a ringed stud for bonding agent retention. The rods will be an exotic wood. All he has to do is to drill a 3/8" hole in the ends of the rods, apply adhesive to the studs, and slide them in.
