Dnk Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I have a GT style wing and i want the legs to be higher So i'd like something made up to do the job Cheers for the inputs guys Can you manage a sketch to show what you want with dimensions and take a pic of the legs on your wing and post them up. How much higher are you looking to raise it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted October 28, 2011 Author Share Posted October 28, 2011 Yeah I'll do a sketch Not much really about an inch to 2 inches maybe Need to do some measuring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 What wing do you have ? does it use the o/e wing holes ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted October 28, 2011 Author Share Posted October 28, 2011 It's a custom built one It has the apr gt feet that uses the stock holes It's just the feet that I need to be bigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I've had a quick look and i'd have thought an easier cheaper way of raising the wing would be to make new legs or a piece to fit between the feet and exsisting legs Making new feet would be the hardest route in my opinion. The APR ones look like their a casting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 If you find someone local with a laser or water jet cutter just get them cut from some hard alloy plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 If you find someone local with a laser or water jet cutter just get them cut from some hard alloy plate. Can you laser alloy? I know we never did any in work, assumed it couldn't be done. Same with titanium but that's obvious why lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Can you laser alloy? I know we never did any in work, assumed it couldn't be done. Same with titanium but that's obvious why lol. Yep, it's possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Definitely, the wing mounts on my Zeus race cars are laser cut alloy sheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 You could get them water jet cut as well You could try this place, their in Suffolk in Haverhill http://www.machinepartengineering.com have cnc milling m/c's and water jet cutting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 My local laser cutting emporium (DC Developments near Norwich) can handle ally up to 6mm thick and program direct from a DXF file without any dimensions. I've used them several times for simple jobs. Far easier than cutting by hand if you can wait a week or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
