Status: offline 		What gear are you guys using on the taco? I am slowly progressing with my construction. Looks like I will be building a new fuse tonight since I found a nice warp in my first attempt. Prolly used to much elmers on the sheeting.... Oh well.

Status: offline 		before you waste the fuse... try wetting it and then weighting it down with magazines on a known flat surface...

For gear, I used some .080" alumuminum from an old sign that was laying around.... My buddy cut me some .050 titanium... but you can't get that from home depot..... I'll post a drawing of the gear I used.....

Ben, you can easily straighten it....wet it well with ammonia it will be very pliable. over bend VERY SLIGHTLY it will dry perfect. doesn't seem to affect glue at all....its worth a try.
