To anyone building the Zenith CH 640 from plans:

After trying roller-type lightening hole flange tools with limited success, I decided to make my own flanging dies. I made a 95mm set out of steel because the inboard wing spar web material is so thick. I made a 115mm set out of aluminum because aluminum is easier to machine, and the rib material is relatively thin.

I am willing to lend out these dies to anyone else who can use them and is willing to pay for shipping. I am posting this message here for anyone who may be searching the archives at some point in the future.

Happy Building!
