• 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.

Hi guys

I have a question. I need to order spars for the Baby Lakes. When I give them a dimension how close can I expect it to be as far as tolerance?

I called ACS and after getting kicked around the phone tag the person I talked to seemed like he didn't have any clue. I probably should of ordered spars first and built ribs around the spars but that didn't happen.

What has been your experience? Are they within .010" of an inch?
Thanks
Mike
